Douglas Park will have to find €20,500 in UEFA fines from the two Europa League ties played at Ibrox this season.

A total of three incidents were reported to UEFA who twice sanctioned the club for racist actions by supporters resulting in partial stand closures for two Europa League ties. No action has ever been taken for racist actions by the SFA.

The match against Braga attracted two punishments for invading the pitch and the throwing of fireworks.

Against Leverkusen a glass bottle was thrown towards the Leverkusen players as they celebrated the third goal. CCTV coverage has so far failed to identify the bottle thrower.
