Bayern Munich were the most sanctioned club in UEFA’s latest disciplinary measures ‍announced on Wednesday, receiving a total of €116,000 (£101,000) in fines and a partial stadium closure for their next Champions League home game. Bayern were charged with the blocking of public passageways and lighting of fireworks in their match ‌against Sporting earlier this month.

As a result, UEFA ordered the ‌enforcement of a previously suspended penalty, resulting in the partial closure of sectors 111 to 114 at the Allianz Stadium for Bayern’s next UEFA home match – against Union Saint-Gilloise on January ⁠21st.

Bayern were also handed a further partial stadium closure of the ‌entire South Tribune for a subsequent match, but this additional closure is suspended for a two-year probationary period.

Additional fines followed Bayern’s away defeat by Arsenal last month.

 

UEFA ‍fined the German club €40,000 (£35,000) for crowd disturbances and the throwing of objects, as well as €30,000 (£26,000) ‍for “transmitting messages not fit ‌for a sports event”.
