FIFA penalizes Spain Fed $20K over chants
The International Football Federation (FIFA) imposed a fine of $20,000 on the Spanish Football Federation due to anti-Muslim chants shouted by fans during the friendly match between Spain and Egypt in Barcelona on March 31. The Appeals Committee confirmed that the penalty was issued following a conviction by the Disciplinary Committee, considering that this was the Spanish Federation's first offense of this kind and that the conviction was swift. Additionally, FIFA has decided to impose restrictions on spectator attendance at the upcoming friendly match, including closing 15% of the stadium’s stands or allocating those sections to groups such as families, students, and anti-discrimination organizations. These measures may be implemented between June 2027 and March 2028.
