【亞冠】恒大球迷掛「英犬」橫額判刑 閉門作賽兩場緩刑兩年
早前亞冠廣州恒大對東方龍獅比賽尾段恒大球迷高舉「殲英犬、滅港毒」標語一事有最新進展,亞洲足協今日宣布,判罰恒大須閉門作賽兩場,但緩刑兩年執行,意味若恒大不再犯相同錯誤,便毋須受罰。
恒大罰款17.5萬
今日(5月4日)亞洲足協正式宣布,裁定廣州恒大球迷因展示涉及國家主權及政治意見的歧視性標語,違反《亞洲足協紀律和道德守則》第58及65條,判恒大亞冠主場閉門作賽兩場,但緩刑兩年執行,意味恒大若兩年內不再犯,便毋須閉門作賽。另外,恒大亦被罰款2.25萬美元(約17.5萬港元)。
事緣4月25日,廣州恒大作客東方龍獅的亞冠盃分組賽,比賽尾聲有部分恒大球迷舉起「殲英犬、滅港毒」標語,東方翌日表示已就事件入信亞洲足協,亞洲足協其後正式起訴恒大。惟事隔不足24小時,20間恒大球迷會聯合發表聲明,指舉起涉嫌歧視橫額的並非註冊會員。
值得一提的是,這並非恒大首次遭罰亞冠閉門作賽。早在2015年亞冠決賽次回合,恒大因商業違規行為,需在2016年亞冠首場主場賽事被禁止球迷觀賽,罰款16萬美元(約125萬港元)。
