3 fans invade field during Belgium-Senegal World Cup game
Three fans invaded the pitch on Wednesday during the first half as Belgium took on Senegal in the World Cup Round of 32.
They waited until the hydration break so they didn’t disrupt the play on the field itself.
And if you were wondering, they had all their clothes on.
The fans were apprehended somewhat quickly by an alert security unit:

The Red Devils from Belgium, curiously wearing blue and pink jerseys, will be hoping maybe this pitch invasion can shift some momentum.
Clearly, those fans were enjoying this World Cup in North America so much that they felt they had to get involved in the action.
Belgium is probably better off sticking with the players they brought to the tournament, though. The pitch invaders couldn’t break down a strong defense.
