UEFA hit German FA with second fine over fan's behaviour

The German Football Association are facing a second fine for the behaviour of Germany fans at the European Championship following Sunday's 2-1 Group B win over Denmark. The disciplinary proceedings were for the "display of inappropriate banners and symbols, and inappropriate chanting", but UEFA refused to confirm if any of those were racist in nature.

The FARE (Football Against Racism in Europe) network, who have been working with UEFA to monitor crowd problems at Euro 2012, later announced one of their observers had reported a neo-Nazi banner in the German section of the crowd during Sunday's match in Lviv.

FARE posted on their official Twitter account: "FARE can confirm that one of our observers reported a neo-nazi banner in the German section at the match v Denmark in Lviv on Sunday."
