During the International Handball match between HC Vardar PRO Skopje (FYROM) and SC Magdeburg (Germany) last Saturday, a provocative banner with irredentist content was shown by FYROM’s team supporters.
Fans of Vardar Skopje unfurled a huge Banner showing a irrendentist map of the so-called “United Macedonia” (photo above) which claimed parts of Greece and Bulgaria’s sovereign territories. The highly offensive banner included the slogan: “UNITED MACEDONIA”, written in English language.
At the same time, another provocative banner with a huge Star of Vergina was placed almost next to one of the goalposts.
Despite the fact that the match was for Men´s EHF European Cup Group, none of the present officials cared to act and remove the highly offensive banners.
Check out the photos and videos from the provocations by FYROM’s fans.
