Galatasaray supporters cannot attend the upcoming Champions League away leg against Liverpool. Governing body UEFA issued the ban following disturbances during the Turkish club's previous round fixture against Juventus. The ruling prohibits the sale of tickets to away fans for the match at Anfield, per Sky Sports.
Disciplinary action followed reports of crowd trouble and the use of pyrotechnics during the game in Italy. UEFA officials confirmed the decision after reviewing evidence of spectator misconduct. Liverpool confirmed it will not provide an away allocation for the fixture, according to The Guardian.
Galatasaray previously received warnings regarding supporter conduct in European competitions. The club must also pay a fine alongside the one-match travel restriction. Liverpool officials stated they are working with local authorities to ensure stadium security remains a priority for the tie. No further appeals from the Istanbul-based side have been reported at this time.
