Union Berlin Fined 84,000 Euros for Fan Misconduct during Bundesliga Matches

Bundesliga football club Union Berlin has been sentenced to a fine totaling 84,000 euros by the DFB sports court. As the German Football Association announced on Thursday, supporters of the Berlin team set off around 51 pyrotechnic devices during the Bundesliga match at VfB Stuttgart on March 8. In the dramatic season finale, when the Köpenickers secured their place in the league with a 2:1 victory against SC Freiburg, Union fans also lit at least 30 Bengal lights and threw at least three beer mugs in the direction of the pitch.
