The UEFA Ethics and Disciplinary Commission has decided to fine the Albanian Football Federation in the amount of 21,250 euros due to the incidents that occurred during the Euro 2024 qualifying match, Albania-Moldova, played at the “Air Albania” stadium on June 17, 2023.

The financial penalty came from the problem caused by the “Tirona Fanatics” group of fans, who lit flares during the match, thus causing riots and completely avoidable situations.

The AFF calls on fans to be more responsible when watching the national team at the stadium.

“AFF (FSHF) finds the opportunity to appeal to all groups and Albanian fans to be more responsible and avoid creating incidents that could bring financial penalties and not only for the National Team and Albanian football.

At the same time, we invite all fans and football fans to support the National Team, showing citizenship and responsibility through a correct behavior and respecting the rules and the opponents”, announces the AFF.
