Manchester City have been fined £15,576 by UEFA following a number of incidents at the first leg of their Champions League round-of-16 match against Monaco on February 21.

The fine relates to a pitch invasion, the throwing of objects and a late kick-off for the game at the Etihad Stadium, which City won 5-3.

Pep Guardiola's side went on to lose the second leg 3-1 and exited the competition on the away goals rule, with the aggregate score tied at 6-6.
