Uefa rejected Sion's appeal against their expulsion from the Europa League yesterday, allowing Celtic to remain in the competition and face Atletico Madrid tomorrow.

The Swiss club were thrown out of the tournament on 2 September after being found guilty of fielding ineligible players, with Celtic handed their place in the group stages despite losing their play-off 3-1 on aggregate. Sion had vowed to fight their expulsion but have lost their appeal to be reinstated following yesterday's hearing.

However, Sion can take their case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport within 10 days of written receipt of yesterday's decision by Uefa's Appeals Body.

I think UEFA believe they are above the law and must face the consequences. I can't understand their non-adherence to Swiss law, they can come out of this tuff situation.
