UEFA warns FC Porto after Rangers complaints | OneFootball

UEFA issued FC Porto a disciplinary warning over the treatment of Rangers fans during their visit to the Estádio do Dragão in January for a UEFA Europa League match.

The decision was made public by the Rangers FC Fan Advisory Board, the Scottish club’s supporters’ advisory body, which considers the measure far too lenient given the complaints raised by its fans. In a statement published on social media, the structure representing Rangers supporters said it was “pleased” to see FC Porto sanctioned, stressing that, “although a warning sanction does not go nearly far enough”, at least the fans’ feedback “was heard” by the disciplinary authorities.

The Fan Advisory Board underlined that the contribution of Rangers supporters was decisive in prompting UEFA to examine the case, following several reports of difficulties entering and leaving the Estádio do Dragão and criticism of the conduct of the security forces.

UEFA’s decision comes after complaints lodged by Rangers and by Scottish supporter groups, who reported problems entering and leaving Porto’s stadium during the UEFA Europa League league-phase match on 29 January, which ended in a 3-1 win for the Dragons.
