FIFA has sanctioned the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) following discriminatory chanting during a match between Spain and Egypt.
- The federation must pay a $20,000 fine.
- A portion of the stadium hosting the next men’s international friendly must be closed.
- The closure will affect 15% of the venue’s total capacity.
- The penalties stem from offensive behavior recorded during the March match at Barcelona’s RCDE Stadium.
The governing body issued the disciplinary measures to address the incidents reported at the friendly fixture. #FIFA #RFEF #FootballNews @FIFAcom @rfef
