England's U21 side were subjected to racist chants and pelted with seats, coins and stones during their European Championship play-off in Serbia.
Danny Rose after the final whistle blewCaptain Jordan Henderson praised his players for their reaction to the alleged racist abuse and called on Uefa to take the appropriate action.
The Football Association reported "a number of incidents of racism" to Uefa after ugly scenes marred a 1-0 win for Stuart Pearce's team in the second leg of their play-off in Krusevac.

Defender Danny Rose was sent off after the final whistle after apparently responding angrily to monkey taunts from the crowd.
Scuffles also broke out when supporters invaded the field moments after Connor Wickham's stoppage-time goal secured a 2-0 aggregate success and a place at next year's finals in Israel.

"I thought our players were brilliant and conducted themselves very well. The players completely condemn what happened.

A statement from the FA read: "The FA condemns both the scenes of racism and the confrontation at the final whistle during which time our players and staff were under extreme provocation.

"These were seemingly aimed at a number of black England players by the crowd. The matter is now with Uefa."
England manager Stuart Pearce said Serbia's technical director Savo Milosevic had visited the England dressing room to apologise.
"I never like to see any football matches end like that," Pearce told ESPN.
"I think there were one or two racist incidents that came on from the crowd. It's in (Uefa's) hands now.
"It's very sad, to be fair, but we're united as a team. I'm very proud of the reaction of our players."
