Allsvenska football team Djurgården announces on its website that the club has received a hefty bill from the European Football Association (Uefa) after the away match against Chelsea in the semifinal of the Conference League in May.

The total fine amounts to just over 670,000 kronor (60,875 euro). The largest item of around 220,000 kronor concerns an inappropriate message conveyed by the away supporters on the Stamford Bridge stand.

It is also about fines for the use of pyrotechnics, thrown objects and disturbances on the stand.

Vandalism costs the club around 115,000 kronor to Uefa. Djurgården is also ordered to contact Chelsea within 30 days to settle the cost of repairs to the men's toilet that the supporters are said to have destroyed.

Previously, Djurgården has been fined around 620,000 kronor to Uefa for disturbances related to the home match against Chelsea and the two matches against Rapid Wien in the quarterfinals, reports TV4 Fotbollskanalen.

Chelsea won the double match against Djurgården with 5–1.
