This Monday, October 16, a match of the Euro Cup Qualifiers had to be suspended due to an alleged terrorist attack that left two people dead and one injured in the city of Brussels.
The comparison between Belgium and Sweden Only 45 minutes could be played because the players from both teams refused to take the field to play the complement due to fear of a possible entry by the attacker who, according to local information, would be dressed in a fluorescent orange jacket and a white helmet.
For now, the attacker has not been identified or arrested. He had previously uploaded a video on social media in which he states that he is part of the Islamic State and that he would have executed “infidels.”
The victims were two Swedish fans wearing their national team’s clothing and a taxi driver, who was injured in the incident. The third is hospitalized and out of danger.
