Spanish police opened an investigation on Wednesday after fans chanted Islamophobic slogans during Spain’s goalless friendly against Egypt on Tuesday.
The match at the RCDE Stadium near Barcelona prompted condemnation from players, officials, and the government, Spanish outlet El País reported.
Supporters at the home ground of RCD Espanyol shouted, “Who doesn’t jump is a Muslim,” during the World Cup warm-up match.
Lamine Yamal, a Spanish international of Moroccan origins and Muslim, criticized the chant on Instagram, calling it “ignorant and racist” and saying that using religion as mockery in football is “disrespectful and intolerable,” while noting that not all fans share such behavior.
Spain’s Justice Minister Félix Bolaños also denounced the incident, linking it to rising racism and xenophobia and reaffirming the government’s opposition to such conduct in public spaces.
