Rangers have been hit with a fine of £10,100 by UEFA following concerns related to public safety during their Champions League third qualifying round match against Dynamo Kyiv.
The match, held at Hampden Park on August 13, 2023, was seemingly marred by incidents that led to the governing body’s decision.
The fine stems from reports that the Glasgow club failed to ensure the safe passage of fans and staff, leading to the "blocking of public passageways."

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
