UEFA are making a major change to their Euro 2024 protocols after a series of pitch invasion incidents that largely targeted Portugal 's Cristiano Ronaldo .Ronaldo, who is playing in his record-setting sixth European Championship, did not get on the scoresheet but did square the ball for Fernandes to tap into an empty net.But some of their post-match focus was directed away from the football and towards a number of pitch invasions during the match.
Five spectators, at five different intervals, ran onto the pitch during the game, with some of the fans running towards Ronaldo in an attempt to get a photo., but one security official slipped and fell into Portugal forward Goncalo Ramos, who fell to the ground as a result. Martinez said that, although 'the intentions of the fans were good', he was 'concerned' about the pitch invasions,"We need to be careful. It shouldn't happen - there's a lot of security. We should give a message to the fans also because it's not the right way. It's not good to have players so exposed on the pitch.": "Safety and security in the stadium, on the pitch and at team facilities are the ultimate priority for UEFA, DFB and Euro 2024.
"To this end, additional security measures will be deployed in the stadiums to further meet the requirements of the tournament, and to prevent such incidents."As a reminder, any incursion onto the pitch constitutes a breach of the stadium rules and will result in expulsion from the stadium, a ban from all tournament matches and the filing of a formal criminal complaint for trespass.
