(Reuters) -Barcelona have been banned from selling tickets to their fans for their next Champions League away game after their supporters were found guilty of racist behaviour during their match against Monaco, governing body UEFA said in a statement on Friday.
Barcelona were fined 10,000 euros and were also handed an additional one match ban from selling tickets to their away supporters that was suspended for one year.
Monaco beat Barcelona 2-1 at their Louis-II stadium last week.
Barca's next away game is in Belgrade against Red Star on Nov. 6.
Barcelona accepted the sanction and said in a statement they would "reinforce the current measures and undertake the additional actions that are appropriate to prevent these events from happening again in the future as well as to punish those responsible".
