BERLIN: Schalke 04 have been fined 50,000 euros for racist chants their fans made during last week's German Cup win against Hertha Berlin, the German Football Association ruled on Tuesday.AdvertisementThe DFB said the player was racially abused in the 85th minute from a group of Hertha supporters. Torunarigha was then sent off in extra time for a second bookable offence, throwing down a water crate on the sideline.
This is not the first time Schalke have been in the spotlight for racism. Schalke president Clemens Toennies stepped down for three months last year over comments the DFB said were racist. He later apologised.
