Nastasic and Kolarov were both wearing these shirts during city's celebration. It says "Serbia to Tokyo".

Outside of Serbia in ex-Yugoslavia, the slogan is sometimes written on walls, but then it is taken as a derogatory joke and nationalistic provocation

is a slogan used by Serbian soccer fans to taunt rival ethnic groups in the beginning of the Yugoslav wars of the 1990s. At that time, Serbian soccer club Red Star Belgrade has won the European Cup, and also the worldwide title in Tokyo, Japan, winning Intercontinental Cup.
Neither Nastasic nor Kolarov played for Red Star
quote:
In the Kosovo village of Lozica, the local Albanian population was claiming that the graffiti "Srbije do Tokija" was written by Serbian military forces during the destruction of the village
quote:
During 1999 NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, phrase was expanded. "Srbija do Tokija, al' preko Milvokija", meaning "Serbia to Tokyo, but over Milwaukee", in order to show disagreement with USA role during 1999 bombing

following the precedent they set with Anelka and the quenelle, I would have to think....lol the FA doesn't follow precedent. Unless it blows until a controversy, they won't be suspended.
