UEFA had earlier launched disciplinary proceedings against Russia in response to their fans storming their English counterparts in the stadium.
“The UEFA Executive Committee has warned both football associations that – irrespective of any decisions taken by the independent disciplinary bodies relating to incidents inside the stadium – it will not hesitate to impose additional sanctions …including the potential disqualification of their respective teams from the tournament, should such violence occur again,” UEFA said in a statement.
“We urge both the Football Association and the Russian Football Union to appeal to their supporters to behave in a responsible and respectful manner.”
