All Serbia’s players and staff involved in Tuesday night’s hugely controversial UEFA under-21 play-off against England have been asked to make formal statements.

A senior figure at the Italian Football Federation has dismissed Serbia’s demands to replay the Euro 2012 qualifier abandoned due to crowd disorder last week.

UEFA have confirmed they have opened “a full and thorough” investigation into the incidents which caused the abandonment of last night’s Euro 2012 qualifier between Italy and Serbia in Genoa.

UEFA are waiting for their match delegate’s report before acting following the riots which forced the abandonment of Italy’s game against Serbia after only six minutes.

Dusan Petkovic, the son of Serbia and Montenegro coach Ilija Petkovic, has pulled out of the World Cup squad after a media outcry against his inclusion.
