Melbourne Victory have copped the same punishment as Western Sydney due to poor fan behaviour during last Saturday night's derby against Melbourne City.
The FFA have sanctioned the Victory with a $50,000 fine and a suspended three-point deduction for flares in the crowd.
"The behaviour of a number of Melbourne Victory supporters last Saturday night was deplorable," FFA CEO David Gallop said.
"(The behaviour) cast a shadow over what was a fabulous game of A-League football.
“It's staggering that these dangerous incidents happened just days after FFA had applied sanctions to the Western Sydney Wanderers.
"The focus on fan behaviour could not have been more acute.
“If there is any bright note in this situation, it is the refreshing attitude shown by both clubs through their CEOs, coaches and players. They are saying ‘enough is enough'. As leaders and ambassadors of their clubs, they want to be part of the solution.”
