A soccer match between host Belgium and Sweden has been abandoned at halftime after two Swedes were killed in a shooting in central Brussels before kickoff
A soccer match between host Belgium and Sweden was abandoned at halftime Monday after two Swedes were killed in a shooting in central Brussels before kickoff. Fans remained inside the King Baudouin stadium after the European Championship qualifier was stopped and chanted “All together, All together!” The match was being played around 3 miles away from the shooting. The teams were tied 1-1 at halftime.
The Swedish FA said in a message to Swedish supporters on site that the Belgian police wanted supporters to stay in the arena for security reasons. “Keep calm and take care of each other,” the FA said. “Our thoughts go out to all the relatives of those affected in Brussels.” It was not immediately clear if the shooting was linked to terrorism, or to the Israel-Hamas war.
