Against France
Fans threw cups: Hammer penalty for the ÖFB!
Heavy fine for the ÖFB! Because Austrian fans threw cups in the direction of the opposing fans in the first European Championship group match against France, the association is now being asked to pay.
Around 20,000 red-white-red fans were in the Düsseldorf stadium and celebrated a real soccer festival. However, some supporters may have been a little out of line, which is why UEFA sent a letter to the ÖFB. Due to the misconduct of its own fans, the ÖFB has to pay a fine of 57,375 euros.
ÖFB and fans under scrutiny
The ÖFB and its fans are also under observation. In the event of a further offense of this kind, the fine would be increased by 50 percent. This means that if red-white-red fans throw cups in the direction of the opposing team again, the fine would rise to a high five-figure sum.
The Austrian Football Association has responded with a letter to the fan clubs. In it, the cup throwers are informed of the financial consequences.
