Protestor ties themselves to Hampden goalpost to delay Scotland-Israel qualifier

Kick-off in Scotland’s clash with Israel was delayed for around 30 minutes after a member of the public breached Hampden security and chained themselves to a goalpost while pro-Palestinian protests were taking place outside the stadium.

A decision to stage the Euro 2025 qualifier behind closed doors was taken following intelligence over planned disruptions in protest at Israel’s ongoing offensive on Gaza.
