ITALY was awarded a 3-0 win by UEFA yesterday and Serbia ordered to play at least one home match behind closed doors following the flare-throwing crowd riot at a Euro 2012 qualifier in Genoa.
The Serbian FA was also told to refrain from ordering tickets for all away matches during the remainder of qualifying.
The match played on October 12 was abandoned after six minutes when masked Serbian fans hurled flares on to the pitch and at Italian supporters.
"The Control and Disciplinary Body has decided to award the match as a 3-0 forfeit win to Italy," a UEFA statement said.
Serbia's one-match crowd ban, which is set to take effect for the home qualifier against Northern Ireland on March 25, came with the suspended threat of a second game behind closed doors if any comparable incident occurs in the next two years.
Italy was also hit with a suspended sentence of one game without fans for a period of two years while Serbia was fined 120,000 euros (US$168,000) and Italy 100,000 euros.
