(Reuters) - Montenegro have been ordered to play their next European competition match behind closed doors as part of sanctions handed out by UEFA for the racist behaviour of their supporters during a match against England last month.

England defender Danny Rose was subjected to monkey chants and Raheem Sterling, scorer of England's final goal in the 5-1 win, was also targeted, with racist abuse heard throughout the game in Podgorica on March 25.

In a statement, England's Football Association said:"The FA acknowledges UEFA's decision to sanction the Football Association of Montenegro. We hope that their next home match being played behind closed doors sends out a message that racism has no place in football or in wider society. Montenegro's Football Association has also been fined 20,000 euros for other charges including the setting off of fireworks and throwing of objects.
