(Reuters) - Anderlecht have been ordered to play their next two European games without their away fans after crowd trouble marred their Europa Conference League defeat by West Ham United last week, the governing body said on Friday.

Fans of the Belgian side lit flares and threw seats at West Ham supporters during the game at London Stadium, which ended in a 2-1 win for the hosts.
