Caf slap Gor Mahia with Sh1.5m fine over crowd trouble in Confederation Cup matches

Gor Mahia have been fined Sh1.5million by the Confederation of African Football (Caf) following crowd trouble during two of their Caf Confederation Cup matches.

In the first incident, K’Ogalo fans were allegedly caught on camera throwing objects onto the pitch in frustration, protesting what they felt was poor officiating when the Kenyan champions took on Algerian side NA Hussein Dey on February 24.

On March 17, the fans once again invaded the pitch in celebration after Gor Mahia edged out Petro Atletico of Angola 1-0, to advance to the quarter-finals of the Caf Confederation Cup for the first time in history.
