John Hatton from Portadown had earlier been sentenced to an 160-hour community payback order at Glasgow Sheriff Court after he ran onto the pitch and appeared to aim a kick at Kylian Mbappe during the game which PSG won 5-0.

The 21-year-old admitted assault and behaviour likely to incite public disorder last month.

PSG were also fined £4,000 for acts of damage after seats were broken at Celtic Park.
