Fans set off fireworks in violation of regulations! Marseille was fined more than 70,000 euros + some stands were closed but the execution was suspended

November 16 According to the French newspaper "Le Parisien", Marseille fans were fined 71,625 euros by UEFA for violating regulations such as setting off fireworks in the Champions League.

In last week's Champions League match, Marseille lost 0-1 at home to Atalanta. During the game, Marseille fans performed TIFO performances and set off fireworks, which violated UEFA's relevant rules. In addition, Marseille fans also violated regulations such as using laser pointers, throwing debris, and blocking public passages during the game.

In the end, UEFA fined Marseille 71,625 euros. The lower area of ​​the south stand of Marseille's home stadium that also set off fireworks was fined to be closed for one game, but was given a two-year suspended sentence. If violations continue within the next two years, the grandstand area will be closed.

In addition, Marseille goalkeeper coach Alexander Salvat was suspended for two games by UEFA for "insulting the referee or making insulting remarks to the referee" after the game. Marseille believed that Atalanta player Ederson should have been awarded a penalty kick for a handball foul in the penalty area, but the referee did not award a penalty and Atalanta scored through a counterattack. This was "unfair" or even "robbery".
