Kiev Hit For Chelsea Trouble  (Sky Sports)

Dynamo Kiev fansDynamo Kiev have been ordered to play their next two European home matches behind closed doors for their fans' racist behaviour and crowd trouble during their match with Chelsea last month.

A third match will be played behind closed doors if they re-offend in the next three years, and the Ukrainian club has also been fined £70,000.

Football's European anti-discrimination body Football Against Racism in Europe (FARE) passed footage to UEFA which appeared to show an attack on four black fans at the match in Ukraine on October 20 which ended 0-0.

Dynamo were also punished for blocking stairwells at the Olympic Stadium in breach of safety and security regulations.

The club has been in trouble with UEFA for racist behaviour in the past.

Kiev were found guilty of "racist conduct by supporters" during home games against Paris Saint-Germain and Bordeaux in 2013.

That led to European football's governing body ruling they must play their next game in European competition in an empty stadium.
