Hoops braced for further UEFA punishment

Celtic should find out today whether they face UEFA action for two incidents involving Hoops fans before Thursday night’s Europa League game against Udinese in Italy.

At the Stadio Friuli, before the 1-1 draw which saw Neil Lennon’s side exit the tournament, a two-part banner insulting UEFA was unfurled by the travelling fans and there were several flares set alight, one of which was hurled onto the pitch-side running track.
