According to Mozzart Sport, Partizan were punished by partially emptying their home arena for the next three matches, as well as a fine of 50,000 euros.

The team is ordered to host the next three games (including the first games during the 2022-23 season) closing: the first 10 rows of the "A" stand, the first 13 rows of the "White lodge" stand, the first 10 rows of tribune "B", complete tribunes "Parter 4", "Parter 4 Senior", "Parter B", "Blue Lodge", and the first 12 rows of tribune "VIP Lodge".

Per Mozzart Sport, the delegate of Game 3 presented a report detailing all the elements incriminating the home fans, including verbal and physical assaults, with repeated violations of throwing various hard objects on the court. Additionally, flares and lasers were used by the fans.

Crvena Zvezda's head coach Dejan Radonjic was also fined 300 euros for a technical foul during the match.

The game was interrupted 57 seconds before the end, and the break lasted about 40 minutes. The three referees left the arena after more objects fell on the court. Referee Uros Nikolic was wounded in the leg, as a result of which it was soon ordered to vacate some rows behind Red Star's bench. The match continued and ended only after all the conditions were met.

Crvena Zvezda, last year's champions, lead by 2-1 in the final series. The fourth meeting is held today with Partizan being the host team again.
