  • Serie A side AS Roma and Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt have been sanctioned for the behaviour of their supporters in a Europa League clash last month, European football's governing body UEFA said on Friday.

The article from MSN discusses the sanctions imposed on AS Roma and Eintracht Frankfurt by UEFA due to fan behavior during their Europa League match. Roma was fined 55,000 euros and banned from selling tickets to their away supporters for their next European match due to incidents involving fireworks, object throwing, and crowd disturbances. Frankfurt received a 30,000 euro fine for similar issues, including the use of fireworks and blocking public passageways. Additionally, Roma's coach, Jose Mourinho, was banned for four European matches for his confrontational behavior towards the referee after the game, which ended in a 1-0 loss for Roma. These sanctions reflect UEFA's ongoing efforts to curb fan violence and ensure safety at football matches.
