UEFA fines Georgian football federation 30,000 euros and Turkey 25,000 euros for confrontation between fans

After a confrontation between Georgian and Turkish fans at the stadium before their match, UEFA announced fines of 30,000 euros ($32,200) for the Georgian football federation and 25,000 euros ($26,900) for Turkey.

Fighting broke out among fans inside the Dortmund BVB Stadion before the Euro 2024 match between Turkey and Georgia on June 18. Around 40 fans from each set of supporters were involved in the brief scuffles and police moved between them, a Reuters reporter inside the stadium said.

UEFA has also fined its tournament co-organizer Germany for failing to stop selfie-seekers from coming onto the field to get photos taken with Cristiano Ronaldo at the European Championship.

The total amount of fines levied across the 36-game group stage, including some that were previously announced, was almost 1.3 million euros ($1.4 million) across 22 of the 24 national federations at the tournament. Only Slovakia and Spain were exempt.
