Germany were of course involved in the game with France on the fateful evening of the attacks in Paris. Hopefully this is a precautionary measure.

We will update this page as we get more information.

Update: Police spokesperson Stephanie Weiss has confirmed that a suspicious object – thought to be a suitcase – was found at the stadium.
