UEFA bans PSV from selling next European away game’s tickets

UEFA has banned PSV Eindhoven from selling tickets for their next European away game after crowd trouble during last weekend’s Europa League match against Arsenal.

European football’s governing body made the announcement on Thursday, hours before the two sides met in the return group fixture in the Netherlands.

The Dutch side next visit Norway’s Bodø/Glimt on November 3.

PSV Eindhoven were also ordered to pay a fine of 40,000 euros ($40,000) to Arsenal “for throwing of objects, crowd disturbances, and acts of damages”.

The Dutch side lost 0-1 in London last week in a game rearranged because of September’s death of the British queen.

PSV will be confirmed in the top two of Group A if they avoid defeat later Thursday and Bodø/Glimt lose against Zurich, or if they win and Bodø/Glimt draw.
