From the BBC

England and Scotland have both been fined by European governing body Uefa for failing to control their fans during recent Euro 2016 qualifiers.

The English Football Association has been fined 15,000 euros (£10,768) over crowd disturbances in the 3-0 victory in Lithuania earlier this month.

The Scottish FA must pay 20,000 euros (£14,355) after home fans invaded the pitch during the draw with Poland.

Poland and Lithuania were also punished for the behaviour of their supporters.

Uefa have ordered the Polish FA to pay 40,000 euros (£28,721) after their fans clashed with stewards during the 2-2 draw at Hampden Park on 8 October.

The Polish supporters also lit fireworks and threw other objects during the match, which ended Scotland's hopes of reaching the Euro 2016 finals.

Home fans on the pitch?

Only the first thing you highlighted is an actual mistake. The other two make sense, though they could have been phrased better.

First one is a spelling error.

Second one is very poorly phrased and would have been worth amending.

Third one is a punctuation error.

If you're going to be correcting a mistake of someone who is correcting mistakes of someone else who is talking about mistakes, then at least get it right, man.
