UEFA opens disciplinary proceedings against Besiktas, Dynamo Kiev
Dynamo Kiev and Besiktas face disciplinary action following a number of incidents during their Champions League encounter on Tuesday.
UEFA has opened disciplinary proceedings against Dynamo Kiev and Besiktas in the wake of Tuesday's Champions League encounter in Ukraine.
Kiev thrashed their opponents 6-0 to end the Turkish side's hopes of reaching the knockout stages, with referee Craig Thomson dismissing two Besiktas players in what was a frustrating evening for Senol Gunes' men.
The game was marred by crowd disturbances involving both sets of fans and UEFA has now decided to investigate into this week's events.
"Disciplinary proceedings have been opened following the Champions League group stage match between Dynamo Kiev and Besiktas (6-0), played on 6 December in Ukraine," an UEFA statement read.

"These cases will be dealt with by the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body on 2 February 2017."
