JUST IN: UEFA Fines Barcelona For Fans Racist Act
UEFA has announced that Barcelona has been fined 25,000 euros ($26,680) for racist behavior by their fans following the Champions League quarter-final first leg with Paris Saint-Germain.
Two supporters were questioned by police in connection with this incident.
In addition to the fine, Barcelona has been prohibited from selling tickets to their supporters for their next away European match, with this sanction being suspended for a year.
Barcelona ultimately lost the tie 6-4 on aggregate after PSG emerged victorious in the second leg with a score of 4-1 on Tuesday.
On April 10, Paris police reported that two individuals were questioned after videos circulated on social media showing a supporter making monkey noises and another individual making Nazi salutes at the Parc des Princes.
“The UEFA Appeals Body has decided to fine FC Barcelona 25,000 euros and to ban the FC Barcelona from selling tickets to its away supporters for its next UEFA competition match, for the racist behaviour of its supporters,” UEFA said.
“Said ban from selling tickets to its away supporters is suspended for a probationary period of one year, starting from the date of the present decision.”
