Ajax have been fined after the goals used for their Women’s Champions League match against Arsenal were found to be 10 centimetres too small.
The Gunners players alerted the Dutch club’s ground staff to the issue during the warm-up to the second leg on September 28, which the English side won 1-0 to seal a 3-2 aggregate victory and a place in the group stage.
The Uefa control and ethics disciplinary body (CEDB) fined Ajax 1,500 euro (£1,315) over the incident.
Arsenal head coach Jonas Eidevall said at the time: “It’s been a very weird experience coming here, a big club like Ajax but we had to measure the goals before the game and it turned out the goals were too small by 10 centimetres.
“I’ve never experienced anything like that to be honest.”
