Polish soccer club charged over 'jihad' banner
2011-10-10
Legia Warsaw has been charged by UEFA after its fans displayed an offensive banner before a Europa League game against Israel's Hapoel Tel Aviv. The Polish club's fans unfurled a green banner saying "Jihad Legia" in Arabic-style script across one end of the stadium on September 29.

UEFA rules prohibit acts of a "political, offensive or provocative nature" at matches. The European football authority says its disciplinary panel will review the case on November 17. UEFA has the power to order Legia to play future European competition matches in an empty stadium.

The teams will play again in Israel on December 15.
