Legia Warsaw will play their next Champions League game against Real Madrid behind closed doors following crowd trouble during their last home game, UEFA ruled on Thursday.
The club was also fined €80,000 for the incidents in the game against Borussia Dortmund, which included racist behaviour and fighting among the home fans, with the visitors going on to record a 6-0 win, their biggest-ever European victory.
In the stands, supporters wearing balaclavas tried to break into the Dortmund section from Legia's side and ended up fighting and spraying gas at the security guards.
Legia, the first Polish team in 20 years to reach the Champions League group stage, will host the European champions behind closed doors at their 28,000-seater stadium in Warsaw on November 2.
The Polish champions are currently bottom of Group F after also losing 2-0 at Sporting Lisbon on Tuesday.
UEFA opened disciplinary proceedings against the club relating to crowd disturbances, fireworks, throwing objects, insufficient organisation, racist behaviour and blocking stairways.
