International courts said the killings were genocide.The Greek Football Federation feels obliged to apologize, on behalf of those few who participated in this sectarian act, to the Bosnia-Herzegovina Football Federation and the friendly people of that country, the statement said.The banner insults in the most abhorrent way the sporting spirit of football and Greek hospitality, the federation said.FIFA is expected to open a disciplinary case and charge the Greek federation for breaching rules prohibiting offensive and political statements in stadiums.We are in the process of analyzing the different match officials reports and gathering all the necessary information, FIFA said on Monday.Many Greeks feel traditional ties with Serbia because of their shared Orthodox religion, and the game was played in a tense atmosphere after reported attacks on Bosnian fans around the stadium.Fireworks were lit in the stadium by both sets of fans, and both teams ended the game with 10 men after each had a player sent off.
