Thanks to video surveillance at the Vassil-Levski stadium, nine people were identified in a safe manner for sending monkey cries and Nazi signs to black English players.
Fifteen thousand people attended the meeting, lost (6-0) by Bulgaria. The incident triggered an avalanche of reactions from supporters and politicians in the UK and Bulgaria.
Proceedings opened by UEFA
UEFA opened a disciplinary procedure against Bulgaria on Tuesday. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson condemned a vile racism, while his Bulgarian counterpart Boko Borissov pushed the director of the Bulgarian football federation on Tuesday.
In a statement, the head of the Bulgarian national team Krasimir Balakov apologized Tuesday to the players of the team of England and all those who could have felt offended.
The Vassil-Levski stadium was already partially closed for the match due to racist insults during the match against Kosovo in June.
