Eintracht Frankfurt fans banned from Arsenal clash in Europa League after Uefa reject appeal – The Sun

EINTRACHT FRANKFURT fans will not be attending the Europa League clash away at Arsenal after the club lost their appeal against a ban.

The German side were charged by Uefa following incidents during their tie against Portuguese outfit Vitoria on October 3.

The disciplinary action was for throwing of objects, crowd disturbances, act of damages and a late kick-off at the Bonfim Stadium.

Frankfurt appealed Uefa's decision after the governing body imposed a ban on the sale of tickets for the match at the Emirates on November 28.

But Uefa have dismissed their appeal for supporters to be able to watch the game in North London.

The Bundesliga outfit had already been under a suspended sanction at the time of the charge for previous breaches.

Supporters of Adi Hutter's side were also banned from attending the clash in Belgium against Standard Liege earlier this month.

A statement from Uefa said: "The appeal of Eintracht Frankfurt against the judgement of the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Commission of 17 October 2019 was rejected by the competent chamber last night.

"As a result, the 'cut-off penalty' for the game at Arsenal FC on 28 November in London continues."
