Celtic could be facing disciplinary action from UEFA after their fans displayed Palestinian flags during the UEFA Champions League qualifier against Israeli sideย Hapoel Be'er Sheva on Wednesday night.

The Hoops have been punished eight times in the last five years by the governing body for a variety offences, while last night's scenes could incur further reprimand if deemed an act of political expressionโ€”something forbidden by UEFA.

Brendan Rodgers' side won the first leg qualifier, 5-2, but could face a partial closure of their stadium for future fixtures if they are found guilty.
