CAF crackdown after trouble in African club matches
Esperance of Tunisia, Mamelodi Sundowns of South Africa and Mouloudia Alger of Algeria were the clubs hardest hit financially on Thursday after a crackdown by the CAF disciplinary board.
Esperance were fined $150,000 (€132,000), Mouloudia 140,000 and Sundowns 100,000 following incidents during and after CAF club competitions quarter-finals in April.
Inadequate security, inappropriate supporter behaviour, breaches of security and safety regulations and the throwing of smoke bombs and objects were among issues leading to fines.
A CAF statement included the use of laser pointers and pyrotechnics and a lack of ticket and crowd control as other causes.
Orlando Pirates of South Africa ($70,000), CS Constantine and USM Alger of Algeria (25,000 each), FAR Rabat of Morocco (20,000) and Pyramids of Egypt (15,000) were also punished.
Most incidents took place in the Champions League. The incidents involving Constantine and USM were in the second-tier Confederation Cup, the African equivalent of the Europa League.
Mouloudia assistant coach Mohamed Khazrouni was banned for four CAF matches and fined $15,000 after incidents following their match against Pirates in Soweto.
Algerian defender Abdelkader Menezla was hit with a two-match ban, one of which was suspended for one year.
Mouloudia, who lost 1-0 on aggregate to Pirates, must also play their next two CAF home matches behind closed doors.
Sundowns, Pirates and Pyramids will be involved in Champions League semi-finals in South Africa on Saturday and Constantine in a Confederation Cup semi-final in Morocco on Sunday.
