Milan, April 4 (LaPresse) – Real Madrid stars Kylian Mbappé and Antonio Rüdiger were fined by UEFA on Friday, but avoided suspension from the Champions League quarter-finals for their "indecent" post-match celebrations in the previous round.
Mbappé and Rüdiger were both handed a one-match suspended ban for "violating the basic rules of decent conduct," UEFA said, and will be under a one-year probation period.
Madrid will face Arsenal on Tuesday in the first leg of the quarter-finals.
The charges followed the players’ celebrations after a penalty shootout win against city rivals Atlético Madrid in the round of 16 on March 12.
