On Thursday, UEFA stated that Barcelona had been fined 25,000 euros ($26,680) for racist behaviour by their followers after two supporters were questioned by police during their Champions League quarter-final first leg against Paris Saint-Germain.
Barcelona was also barred from selling tickets to their fans for their next away European game, however this sentence has been suspended for a year.
Barca lost the tie 6-4 on aggregate after PSG won Tuesday’s second leg 4-1.
