The football federations of Spain and Russia have been fined by UEFA relating to the racist behaviour of fans at Euro 2012.

Russia have been ordered to pay €30,000 (£24,000) after monkey noises were directed at Czech Republic defender Theodor Gebre Selassie during the Group A encounter on June 8 in Wroclaw.

Meanwhile, Spain have been fined €20,000 (£16,000) as a result of their fans' abuse of Italy forward Mario Balotelli on June 10.
