ZURICH (Reuters) - European soccer body UEFA needs more help from governments to eliminate racism from football, its president Aleksander Ceferin said on Tuesday, after England's black players were subjected to monkey chants during their Euro 2020 qualifier in Bulgaria.

The game, won 6-0 by England, was twice halted in the first half and a public announcement was made under UEFA's three-step protocol for dealing with racist incidents during matches.

The Slovenian said the rise of nationalism across had"fuelled some unacceptable behaviour and some have taken it upon themselves to think that a football crowd is the right place to give voice to their appalling views."
