Points deduction for NK Dinamo Zagreb

NK Dinamo Zagreb must play their next two home UEFA Europa League matches behind closed doors, and three points have also been deducted from the Croatian club's points tally in Group A.

UEFA's Control and Disciplinary Body has today ruled that NK Dinamo Zagreb must play their next two home matches in the UEFA Europa League behind closed doors, and have also deducted three points from the Croatian club's points tally in Group A.

Crowd disturbances
The decision follows serious crowd disturbances at the UEFA Europa League match between FC Timişoara and Dinamo Zagreb on 1 October. The two home matches to be played behind closed doors are against AFC Ajax on 5 November, and Timişoara on 17 December. The three-point deduction is effective immediately and is taken from the total number of points achieved by Dinamo Zagreb in Group A.

Appeal deadline
This decision may be appealed against within three days of the club receiving the written reasoning.
