Lazio were also handed fines of €2.5k and €6k respectively, after supporters used pyrotechnics and were seen “throwing objects” during the match.

READ CELTIC VERDICT

Celtic will no doubt be becoming incredibly frustrated at having to pay fines after what seems like every European fixture.

The Hoops have already been fined for supporters’ use of pyrotechnics against AIK and CFR Cluj respectively, whilst also being charged following both games against Lazio.

February’s last 32 clash with FC Copenhagen is up next for Celtic in Europe, and the club will no doubt be hoping they are not on the receiving end of another fine from UEFA in the aftermath of the fixture.
