Ceferin warns Croatia on 'drastic sanctions' - 20/12/2016

Source : https://thepeninsulaqatar.com/

UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin on Tuesday warned Croatia it risked drastic sanctions for hooliganism which he labelled a key problem.

"Unfortunately, Croatian football is not known only by excellent players but also by certain problems that need to be solved," Ceferin told reporters in Zagreb.

"One is the problem with fans, incidents, which might result in drastic sanctions," he said.

Ceferin, who took over the UEFA helm in September, was speaking after meeting head of the Croatian Football Federation (HNS) Davor Suker and Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic.

"I warned both prime minister and Davor that ... there is a serious possibility for the toughest sanctions," he said without elaborating.

Suker expressed hope that the state institutions, notably the judiciary and the interior ministry, would help the federation in the fight against fans' violence.

"It is important that we get a fair and just law on hooligans," Suker said.

Ceferin said that Croatia's other problem was its poor football infrastructure.

The country has had a series of FIFA and UEFA sanctions over unruly fans known for throwing flares at matches, chanting fascist slogans and displaying pro-Nazi symbols.

Croatia were docked a point by UEFA after their fans painted a swastika on the pitch in Split ahead of their June 2015 qualifier with Italy.

Croatia's Euro 2016 match against the Czech Republic in France in June had to be suspended for a while over flare throwing.

Hooliganism has increased in Croatia over the past four years since Suker, a former international striker, took over as HNS president.

Some fans believe Suker and the federation are too closely linked with controversial former Dinamo Zagreb boss Zdravko Mamic, a key figure in Croatian football.

The fans accuse Mamic, indicted this year in a multi-million-euro corruption case, of unfairly profiting from football and have staged protests against the national team in response.

Police look into claims Leicester City fans threw coins at referee Craig Pawson during Stoke match

Police are looking into claims Leicester City fans threw coins in the direction of match officials during the weekend's ill-tempered Premier League fixture away to Stoke City.

The Foxes also face the prospect of an FA probe into the allegations, who will likely seek observations from the clubs this week and await the match officials' report.

Accounts suggest objects were thrown from the away end towards referee Craig Pawson and his linesmen as they made their way from the pitch at the half-time interval.

City's 3,000-strong travelling contingent were certainly voicing their anger at Pawson's controversial decision to send off striker Jamie Vardy in the 28th minute for what many people – Gary Lineker and the Match of the Day panel among them – thought was a fair challenge.

TV footage of the incident appears to show stewards escorting Pawson from the field ducking out of the way from supposed missiles.

A spokeswoman for Staffordshire Police said: "No arrests were made at the game, but we are looking into reports that missiles were thrown at referee Craig Pawson.

"We are awaiting publication of his match report, but officers will be sifting through CCTV footage.

"That's the situation at the moment and the investigation is ongoing."
