UEFA have handed Marseille a partial stadium closure punishment over a series of incidents in their 1-0 defeat at home Atalanta in the Champions League, European football's governing body announced on Saturday.

Home fans at the Stade Velodrome on November 5th had set off flares, thrown projectiles and used lasers.

UEFA fined Marseille 71,000 euros (£62,800) and ordered them to close a part of the south stand for the Champions League match against Newcastle on November 25th.

Goalkeeping coach Alexandre Salvat was given a two-match ban for insulting an official during the Atalanta match.
