Atletico Madrid have been hit by a stadium ban for their match with Liverpool in the Champions as UEFA handed out their heaviest punishment so far for racism 1.fined 150,000 euros (£120,000) 2.three-match stadium ban after crowd trouble and racist abuse during the match against French Marseille earlier this month 3.coach Javier Aguirre has also been banned for his club's home and away fixtures against Liverpool for insulting Marseille players. 4. not allowed to play within 300 kilometres the next two Champions League home matches THEY DESERVE IT !!! & EVEN THEY THEY DESERVE MORE THAN THIS... UEFA SHOULD ACT HARD ON SUCH MATTERS... What do you say pals ??

I think that the punishment is abit too harsh to them, especially the 3 match stadium ban. However, this will serve as a stern warning to the other clubs. And may racism be kick off from soccer.

It is highly regrettable to see Racism creeping in football culture, so i think such stringent measures are needed be to impose on those clubs who aren't able to control their fans. Thanks !! Bloodsheder :-)
