UEFA fines Hungary for fan vandalism!
The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) has fined Hungarian club Ferencváros for disruption caused by its fans at a Champions’ League qualifier against Slovan Bratislava in July in Bratislava, the organisation said on its website.
The fine was levied for the fans’ racist behaviour, the use of rockets and fireworks, for throwing various objects on the pitch, vandalism and provocative rhymes, as well as for blocking the passageways of the stadium, UEFA said.
Ferencváros will also have to close a 1,000-seater section of its stadium from the public at its next home match, and display an anti-racist banner there, the organisation said.

The Slovan Bratislava team did not ‘take the knee’, so what excuse is there this time for these football hooligans? The fact of the matter is that these scum do not need an excuse, they do it whatever.
Time for adults to learn to act properly!
Anti racist banner? Oh hell no.
