Malaga president Abdullah Al-Thani has been fined €3,500 by Spain's anti-violence commission for a tweet in which he referred to Barcelona as "Catalan scum."
Al-Thani's tweet is written in Arabic and was translated by AS as "God willing [Madrid] will get beaten by us, but the Catalan scum will not get a whiff of the title after the lies they spread about [Malaga coach] Michel."
The comment was in response to a fan who joked Malaga should allow Real Madrid to beat them to win the title on the last day of the season, and insisted Barca would fail in their bid to win La Liga.
