\u201cAt the same time, my thoughts go out to all the supporters in Belgium last night, no one should ever go to a game of football and feel unsafe when supporting their team.\u201d<\/p>\n

It has been reported that news of the two killings reached the Sweden fans as they were entering the ground shortly before kick-off. Susanne Petersson, chairperson of supporters\u2019 group Camp Sweden, told Reuters that fans were held in hotels overnight before making their way home on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

It has been reported that the two Swedish nationals who were killed were wearing Sweden football shirts. Belgian authorities said the suspected gunman was killed by police on Monday night.<\/p>\n

“We were uneasy and confused, it was difficult to understand what had happened,\u201d Petersson told Reuters. \u201cIf it was aimed at Swedish people or if it was just Swedes that had ended up in something.<\/p>\n

Victor Lindelof <\/p>\n

“We had contact with the police before we gathered (in Brussels), and we didn\u2019t feel particularly unsafe at that point, but then questions started to come on social media and we understood that something had happened.<\/p>\n

“I was one of the last to leave as they had to organise it with police and buses so that it would be safe for us to leave.<\/p>\n

“They provided buses and had routes that delivered everyone to their respective hotels, and the police went in with them to each hotel.\u201d<\/p>\n

Uefa has confirmed there will be a moment of silence in memory of the two victims of the attack in Brussels at all Euro 2024 qualifying matches tonight, including England\u2019s match against Italy at Wembley. <\/p>\n
