Bundesliga - Tennis balls thrown: Bavaria must pay a fine of 12,750 euros

FC Bayern must pay a fine because Munich spectators threw countless tennis balls onto the pitch during the DFB Cup match at Preußen Münster on September 26. The sports court of the German Football Association sentenced the Bundesliga club to pay the fine, as announced by the DFB on Tuesday. Four days later, Bayern supporters lit two Bengal fires and a smoking pot during the match at RB Leipzig. The fans were fined a total of 12,750 euros for their behavior in these two cases. The fact that the perpetrators from the Leipzig game were identified by the club mitigated the penalty.
