Rangers lodge submissions over UEFA charges
Rangers have lodged both written submissions and material productions in response to the disciplinary proceedings instigated by UEFA following the two Champions League matches against Villarreal on February 22 and March 7.
A statement previously issued by UEFA said: “UEFA has instigated disciplinary proceedings against Scottish club Rangers FC and Spanish outfit Villarreal CF for various infringements relating to the UEFA Champions League first knockout round tie.
“The European governing body will give attention to the improper conduct and hooliganism of Rangers supporters in the return leg in Spain on 7 March, as well as to the fans’ discriminatory chants in both fixtures.
“Villarreal are also being investigated for lack of organisation and violation of UFA security instructions in the return leg match.”
The UEFA Control and Disciplinary Body will decide on the alleged infringements on 12 April.
