UEFA to punish Kiev fans

UEFA has ordered Dynamo Kiev to play their next two home matches in European competition behind closed doors due to two incidents of \"racist conduct by their supporters\" at the Olympic National Sports Complex. The Ukraine club\'s fans are alleged to have behaved in a racist manner in Dynamo\'s UEA Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain in November last year and then again in the UEFA Europa League against Bordeaux in February. \"FC Dynamo Kiev have been ordered to play their next two UEFA competition home matches behind closed doors due to racist conduct by supporters,\" said a statement on UEFA\'s official website. \"The first match behind closed doors applies to the next UEFA club competition match for which the club would qualify, while the sanction for the second match is deferred for a probationary period of three years. The Ukrainian club has lodged an appeal against this decision. The date of the UEFA Appeals Body hearing has yet to be decided.\" From: FiFa
