Biggest fine in Bosnian football

On 17 of this month Siroki Brijeg has won Bosnia and Herzegovina Cup over penalties against Sarajevo. However, the FA was not too happy how this match was played, so they notice a number of omissions. They counted up to six: lack for organization in the game, chanting fascist slogans, belittling the national anthem, incite religious and national hatred, use of pyrotechnics and distribution of alcohol in the stadium. Due to this charges, the club from Siroki Brijeg last week has been penalized with the biggest fine in the country: 25.000 convertible marks (12.781 euros) plus with 7 matches playing on an empty stadium (without supporters) on a national level.
With all these difficulties and by winning the trophy, we will see this club next season competing in the qualifying round of the Europa league.
