‘Disappointed’ Feyenoord investigates appeal against heavy UEFA penalty | Football

sport">“Feyenoord is extremely disappointed that the behavior of a minority – and the associated measures from UEFA – appear to be leaving a heavy negative mark on next season’s European campaign and are now causing the club many tons of financial damage and loss of reputation.” the club said. “In addition, the team will now have to hunt for a good result in the first European home and away game with less support and atmosphere.”

sport">Feyenoord is still studying what the punishment means for the people who would normally be in boxes Q, R, S, T, U and X in De Kuip. The fine is over 100,000 euros.
