(Reuters) -FIFA has fined the Serbian FA 80,000 Swiss francs ($100,590) and ordered a reduced capacity for their next home World Cup qualifier due to discriminatory behaviour by fans during their 5-0 loss to England in Belgrade earlier this month.

FIFA's disciplinary committee also cited the use of lasers, inappropriate gestures and the obstruction of the national anthem in handing down the sanction.
