Serbia fined €80,000 for improper conduct of fans

Serbia’s Under-21s have been ordered to play their next match behind closed doors and the Serbian Football Association fined €80,000 following the “improper conduct of their supporters” during and at the end of the European Championship qualifier against England in October.

UEFA today ordered Serbia to play their next under-21 international behind closed doors following racist chanting and violent scenes during and after England Under-21’s victory in Krusevac in October.

The control and disciplinary body also banned six players for varying terms, including English duo Tom Ince and Steven Caulker, and two Serbian coaches after ugly scenes marred the end of the European Championship play-off.
