PRAGUE (AP) — Slavia Prague has been fined 87,000 euros ($93,000) by UEFA for disturbing the crowd at a Europa League match against AC Milan.
The sanction involved the throwing of objects, unlawful chants and the blocking of the corridors on March 14 in Prague, the second leg of the round of 16. Milan won 3-1, 7-3 on aggregate.
Fans threw glasses at Milan and an assistant referee, chanted “UEFA Mafia” and blocked the stairs.
In addition, Slavia captain Tomáš Holeš received a red card in the 20th minute and was sanctioned for an attack in European competitions.
Slavia has already been fined $100,000 for mafia conduct in organising this season’s Europa League against another Italian club, Roma, in November. This is the largest fine imposed on the Czech club.
