Euro 2016: Croatia and Turkey both charged by Uefa following crowd disturbances in their respective group matches on Friday
Two nations facing punishment from European governing body after trouble in games against Czech Republic and Spain
CROATIA and Turkey have both been charged by Uefa following crowd disturbances in their respective matches on Friday.
During their 2-2 draw with the Czech Republic, Croatian fans threw flares onto the pitch - with one narrowly missing their own player, Ivan Perisic.
It prompted boss Ante Cacic to condemn his own supporters following the Saint-Etienne chaos, calling them 'hooligans'.
Cacic said: "They are not really Croatia supporters. These people are scary and I call them hooligans.
"The 95 per cent of Croatian supporters are ashamed in front of Europe.
"These are sports terrorists. This is maybe just a question about six to ten individuals.

"I hope they can be identified and punished. I hope the Croatia FA is doing everything to prevent this, but it is impossible to avoid."
Meanwhile, Turkey have faced the same charge following the chaos during their showdown with Spain in Nice.
The Turkish fans also set of flares during the game - a heavy 3-0 loss to the reigning champions.
Even before kick-off there was trouble brewing, with three Spanish ultras arrested for attempting to smuggle the pyrotechnics into the stadium, while three others for carrying neo-Nazi banners.
