Sporting reminds fans of fines from UEFA for using pyrotechnic devices

Despite Sporting's excellent win against Estoril on Friday in front of more than 40,000 spectators, two young fans took it upon themselves to 'spoil the fun'.

Sporting CP stresses the damage that using pyrotechnic devices in the stadium can cause and the club will take the appropriate steps against anybody involved in such activity.

The use of such devices results in fines for Sporting from UEFA and puts the club at risk of having one of its stands or even the whole stadium closed.

Fines are also applied in national competitions and have a negative impact on the club's finances.

The two fans involved in the incident against Estoril have been identified.
