A court has delivered sentences to three of the football fans, who were arrested on Saturday after a mass brawl erupted at the end of the Botev Plovdiv's 1-0 home win over city rivals Lokomotiv in the Bulgarian league.
Plovdiv District Court imposed a BGN 400 fine on a 31-year-old man and ruled that the other two, aged 19, remain behind bars for ten days.
The three men will also be prohibited to visit sports events in the course of one year.
