Belgium, Hungary and Portugal face UEFA disciplinary charges

Three teams face UEFA disciplinary charges

UEFA has charged Belgium, Hungary and Portugal after incidents involving their supporters at Euro 2016.

The tournament in France has been marred by crowd trouble and 24 hours after Croatia and Turkey committed a number of offences, UEFA has acted in light of incidents during each of Saturday's three fixtures.

During their 3-0 victory over Republic of Ireland, Belgium's supporters have been charged with the setting off of fireworks and the throwing of objects.

In Marseille, fighting broke out between Hungarian supporters and stewards before the 1-1 draw with Iceland and UEFA has issued charges for crowd disturbances, setting off of fireworks and the throwing of objects.

Portugal have been issued with the charge of field invasion after a fan ran onto the pitch to take a photo with Cristiano Ronaldo following their 0-0 draw with Austria.
