Russian Football Premier League urges for tougher punishment for pyrotechnics

Following Saturday night's Moscow derby between Spartak and CSKA, the Russian Football Premier League (RFPL) is now looking to implement new rules that will toughen the punishment for using flares during matches. Although, according RFPL President Sergey Pryadkin, the current security measures are significant, fans of both teams were able to bring flares into the stadium and burn them throughout the match.
