UEFA fines Lazio and Anderlecht for unruly fans.
Lazio and Anderlecht have been fined 18,000 euros by UEFA for the conduct of their fans at the recent European club competitions.

Belgian team Anderlecht's supporters threw missiles onto the pitch during a UEFA Cup match against Totttenham last week in Brussels.

One of the projectiles hit Spurs' Zokora, and goalkeeper Paul Robinson handed a metal bar he found on the pitch to one of the officials.

Racist chants by Italian team Lazio's fans prompted the same disciplinary action after the Champions League match against Werder Bremen in Germany on October 24. Lazio lost the match 2-1.

From now on an anti-racism banner will be unveiled before the start of every top Italian league and Italian Cup match.

Both clubs were allowed to appeal against the ruling by the UEFA Control and Disciplinary Body within three days.
