Excitement after our round of 16 victory against Denmark (2:0). Around 11:20 PM, a larger special police unit was seen in the catacombs and at the Dortmund EURO** stadium.**
The reason: a man on the stadium roof. According to police reports, he had climbed onto the roof at 10:27 p.m. - during the game. After that, he had refused to leave.

**On Sunday morning, the police stated: The arrested individual is a 21-year-old from Osnabrück. It is still completely unclear whether the 21-year-old intended to endanger the stadium visitors, according to the police.
Due to the explosive use at dizzying heights, the kick-off in the second half was probably delayed. There, it was also visible on TV how referee Michael Oliver called the two captains Ilkay Gündogan and Kasper Schmeichel over and pointed upwards.
Referee Michael Oliver called the two captains Ilkay Gündogan and Kasper Schmeichel to apparently point out the situation.
Obviously as an explanation that the man is on the roof, but the game will continue. Also, a helicopter shone a light on the roof to keep an eye on the person.
In videos, it can be seen how the person could only be arrested by the SEK on the stadium roof with a gun pointed at them after the final whistle.
