Uefa ordered Partizan Belgrade yesterday to play their next Europa League home game with their stadium partly closed after an anti-Semitic banner was displayed in their fixture against Tottenham.

The sign, based on the Only Fools and Horses logo, read: “Only Jews and Pussies” and was branded as unacceptable by Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino after the game last month.

Uefa has told Partizan that their next fixture, against Besiktas, will be played with the ‘K’ section of their stadium shut. The club have also been fined €40,000 (£31,430).

“The fight against racism is a high priority,” said a statement.

“The European governing body has a zero-tolerance policy towards racism and discrimination on the field and in the stands. All forms of racist behaviour are considered serious offences against the disciplinary regulations and are punished with the most severe sanctions.

“Following the entry into force of new disciplinary regulations in June 2013, the fight against racist conduct has been stepped up a level.”
