6686 Sports News on November 16 According to a report by the French media RMC, the UEFA Disciplinary Committee punished Marseille after the last round of the Champions League against Atalanta, and the lower area of the team's south stand was temporarily closed.

It is reported that Marseille needs to pay a fine of slightly more than 70,000 euros, half of which is related to the illegal use of fireworks in the South Stand. In addition, the lower area of the South Stand has also been temporarily closed with a probation period of two years. The behavior of Marseille fans will be closely monitored in the upcoming games.

In addition, Marseille goalkeeper coach Salvat was also suspended for two games for complaining about the ruling. At the end of the game against Atlanta, Salvat angrily rebuked the referee because he was dissatisfied with the referee's decision not to award a twelve-yard penalty, and the team's executives Longoria and Benatia also rushed into the field to question the decision.
