UEFA open disciplinary proceedings against Tottenham Hotspur

UEFA open disciplinary proceedings against Spurs

UEFA have announced that they are investigating the three pitch invasions that marred Tottenham Hotspur's 1-0 victory over Partizan on Thursday evening.

The opening 45 minutes at White Hart Lane were marred by three men invading the playing area to promote a headphone manufacturer, but after the third offender had been removed from the pitch, the referee suspended the match by ordering the two teams into the changing rooms.

The remainder of the fixture was completed without incident but UEFA revealed on Friday that they have opened disciplinary proceedings against Spurs, with the severity of the charge expected to be announced on December 11.

UEFA have also stated that no action will be taken against either Roberto Soldado or Moussa Dembele, who both tried to assist stewards in detaining the offenders.
