Hella VeronaThe Italian sporting justice system has penalised Hellas Verona for their next home game with a partial stadium closure and fine due to racist chanting from fans.

Their next home match, which is against Lazio on October 30, will have the Curva closed  due to monkey chants directed towards AC Milan midfielder Sulley Muntari.

In addition to this, the Scaligeri must also pay a fine of €50,000 as Verona have already been sanctioned for a similar incident of racism in January.

After that circumstance, the courts were willing to to suspend the measure, but this time the decision to close the Curva has come into effect.

Inter have also been fined €30,000 for chants of territorial discrimination against Napoli, as well as laser beams used by some of the Nerazzurri fans on the referee and also Napoli goalkeeper Rafael Cabral.

Furthermore, Inter coach Walter Mazzarri has been given a warning after being sent to the stands during the game against the Partenopei.
