Celtic face fresh UEFA rap for flares set off ahead of Lazio Europa League clash
Celtic face fresh UEFA sanctions after setting off flares ahead of kick-off in Rome this evening.
Supporters housed in the away section lit the fireworks before the game.
Smoke could be seen billowing across the stadium after kick-off.
Up to 10,000 away fans have travelled for the Europa League action.
It's not the first time this season Celtic fans have incurred the wrath of football's governing body in Europe.
The Hoops support let off flares against AIK at Parkhead before doing the same thing before their game against Lazio a fortnight ago.
They were recently also slapped with a £10,400 for a similar incident against Cluj, and £11,000 for the fireworks set off during the AIK game.
