Rangers hit with £14,000 fine for fan behaviour in PSV defeat

Rangers have been hit with a £14,000 pound fine as a result of poor fan behaviour in their game against PSV in the UEFA Champions League.

The Scottish side were punished for their fans letting off fireworks in the play-off victory over the Dutch side.

PSV meanwhile were fined 42,500 euros (£36,800) for a range of offences, including lighting of fireworks, throwing of objects and improper conduct of the team.
