Four clubs hit with partial stadium bans for racist abuse

The Uefa disciplinary panel took action yesterday against three clubs following racist incidents during the qualifying rounds for this season’s Champions League.

Steaua Bucharest, Debrecen and Maribor have all been hit with partial stadium bans, along with FC Chikhura Sachkhere who have been given the same punishment for an incident in Europa League qualifying.

“The fight against racism is a high priority for Uefa,” it said in a statement.

It “has a zero-tolerance policy towards racism and discrimination on the pitch and in the stands.”

Debrecen were punished following incidents in their match against Cliftonville in Hungary on July 22, while the bans for Steaua and Maribor relate to their matches against Stromsgodset and HSK Zrinjski respectively the following day. Chikhura Sachkhere played Bursaspor on July 24.

All four will be required to close specified sections of their stadiums for their next European match.
