A statement from the Russian Premier League after the incident read: “The Russian Premier League expresses its outrage and strongly condemns their rowdy behaviour.
“This act not only casts a shadow over the glorious names of FC Zenit and FC Krasnodar, but all of Russian football.
“We believe that those responsible should be punished in the most severe way. There is no place for hooligans in football.”
