Dinamo Zagreb have been punished for fans' racist chants and must close one section of their stadium for a Champions League match on Tuesday.
Nyon, Switzerland: Dinamo Zagreb have been punished for fans' racist chants and must close one section of their stadium for a Champions League match on Tuesday.
UEFA says its disciplinary panel also ordered the Croatian champions to pay a fine of 25,000 euros.
The panel judged that Dinamo fans chanted racist abuse last week during a Champions League qualifying match against Fola Esch of Luxembourg. Dinamo won 1-0 to advance 6-0 on aggregate.
UEFA says the east section of the club's Maksimir Stadium must be closed on Tuesday when Moldovan champions Sheriff visit for the first leg of their third-round qualifier.
UEFA says Dinamo were sanctioned using tougher new regulations designed to curb racism and discrimination at matches.
