Lazio fined over racist chanting

Uefa have fined Lazio 40,000 euros (£32,500) following racist chanting by their fans during a Europa League game at Tottenham last month.

Lazio have three days to appeal if they believe the findings of the Control and Disciplinary Body are unfounded. The match ended 0-0, with Spurs having three goals ruled out. Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas said he did notear the chants during the game on 20 September, which was attended by Uefa president Michel Platini.
