Scotland match with Israel delayed as protestor chains themself to goal
Hundreds of police officers were in attendance outside Hampden Park, Glasgow, where the fixture was slated to take place behind closed doors.
A large number of protestors, flying both Scotland and Palestine flags, gathered near the stadium prior to the 19:05 BST pm kick-off.
One protestor - wearing a shirt that said 'red card for Israel' - evaded police, ran onto the pitch and chained themself to a goalpost.
The match was swiftly postponed and work then began on safely removing the activist, which was achieved around 19:20 BST.
The match was then allowed to begin at 19:36 BST, with Scotland taking a 3-0 lead over Israel before half-time and ultimately winning 4-1.
In the UK, public protests against Israeli militancy in Gaza have been happening on a regular basis.
