Bulgaria captain Ivelin Popov has condemned the actions of home fans at the Vasil Levski National Stadium in Sofia on Monday, whose racist behaviour led to two first-half stoppages in the UEFA Euro 2020 qualifier against England.
England's players were victims of monkey chants from some of the home support, while television pictures showed some Bulgaria fans giving the Nazi salute:
