UEFA dish out another punishment to Germany

The German Football Association
(DFB) has been fined 25,000 euros for the improper
conduct of their supporters during the 2-1 Group B defeat of
Denmark on June 17, UEFA said in a statement on Monday.
Spectators set off fireworks, chanted inappropriately and
displayed offensive banners, one of which was "neo-nazi",
according to the Football Against Racism in Europe (FARE)
protest group.
Germany, with four wins from four games so far and who are
in semi-final action against Italy at Warsaw's National Stadium
on Thursday, can appeal but must do so within 24 hours.
The DFB has already been fined 10,000 euros at Euro 2012
when German fans threw what appeared to be rolled up pieces of
paper at Portugal players during their June 9 match, also in
Lviv.
