Bayer 04 fined 36,000 euros
The DFB sports tribunal has imposed a fine of €36,000 on Bayer 04 after the club accepted their verdict. On the plus side, up to €12,000 of that sum can be used for safety and infrastructure measures.
The reason for the fine: On 14 December of last year, pyrotechnic devices were set off in the Leverkusen section of the crowd at the derby away to FC Köln (0-2). Bayer 04 accepted the tribunal verdict.
The DFB sports tribunal has granted a reduction of 25 per cent in the fines on Eintracht Frankfurt (€75,000), VfB Stuttgart (€22,500), Fortuna Düsseldorf (€19,500) and Bayer 04 due to the financial effects of the coronavirus pandemic.
