Joe Simunic on Thursday was fined $4,300 for pro-Nazi chants after Croatia qualified for the World Cup by beating Iceland 2-0 on Tuesday. The prosecutors’ office fined the Australia-born defender for “spreading racial hatred,” by knowingly using a call to arms used by the country’s former World War II regime, which was associated with the Nazis. FIFA is still considering disciplinary action against Simunic.
