Overview
- The league’s disciplinary panel on Tuesday awarded Sparta a 3–0 win, fined Slavia 10 million crowns and ordered four home games without fans, a decision that cuts Slavia’s lead to five points with three matches left.
- Sparta Prague was also fined about €25,000 for the behavior of its supporters.
- Slavia president Jaroslav Tvrdik said the club will accept the penalties and will not appeal.
- The derby was abandoned Saturday after Slavia fans rushed the field and threw flares toward the Sparta section, and media reports said Sparta goalkeeper Jakub Surovcik was surrounded and pelted with beer.
- Authorities opened criminal investigations, reviewed video to identify suspects, and the sports minister formed a working group to study tougher stadium security including facial recognition, which currently has no legal basis.
