Ireland's Euro 2016 qualifying rivals Scotland could play their away Group D game against Georgia behind closed doors.

Seven Georgian supporters invaded the pitch during their 2-0 defeat by Germany on Sunday, and their football association now fear the recriminations from UEFA will include a ban on the home support.

Georgia's next home match in Group D is against Gordon Strachan’s outfit  in Tbilisi on September 4th.

According to Scotland's Evening Express newspaper, Georgian FA president Zviad Sichinava told STV: "Delegates from UEFA are already transmitting documents. Unfortunately there will be monetary sanctions.

"Also the next Georgia team home match [against Scotland in September] could be held without spectators."
