The European football's ruling body has already said it would examine reports that Turkey footballers performed a military salute in their Euro 2020 qualifier against Albania. Olivier Giroud scored for France in the 75th minute of Monday night's match before Kaan Ayhan equalized for Turkey six minutes later. "It's wrong to look for malicious intentions in the soldier's salute. Turkey lead Group H of the Euro 2020 qualifiers, ahead of France on goal difference. The Turkish Football Federation posted a tweet after the Albania game last week, which showed the players and coaching staff in the dressing room making the military salute.
