But during the match,

a spectator jumped onto the Philips Stadion pitch in added time and assaulted Sevilla goalkeeper Marko Dmitrovic

, before being subdued by stadium security.

The incident, which did not have any major consequences for Sevilla's Serbian goalkeeper, occurred in the 92nd minute of the match, still with the score at 1-0, when the detained young spectator jumped onto the field and went towards Dmitrovic, whom He even landed a blow that, in principle, did not cause any problems for the footballer, who maintained his position on the field of play until the end of the game.

The person who invaded the field of play tried to punch the goalkeeper, but he slipped and it was not difficult for the 31-year-old athlete (1.94m and 90 kg) to defend himself against the attack.

In fact, he managed to knock down the man who was not part of the game and managed to immobilize him for a few seconds until the members of the stadium security body arrived to arrest the attacker.

The invader was immediately reduced by the security of the PSV Eindhoven stadium and, after the match was stopped, the Italian referee Daniel Orsato and players from both teams approached the Sevilla area to inquire about Dmitrovic's condition, who told the referee that He had no problem, so a minute later the crash resumed.

The world champion with the Argentine National Team Marcos Acuña started in Jorge Sampaoli's team and the former River Lucas Ocampos joined the complement.

However, the Spanish team did not have a good game and fell 2-0 due to goals from the Dutch Luuk De Jong and the Portuguese Fabio Silva.

In any case, the sevillistas agreed to the next stage of the Europa League.

After the match, the Serbian goalkeeper recounted how he experienced the situation on the field of play: "He pushed me from behind, then he tried to hit me. He brushed my nose a bit. Well, the truth was I wanted to hit him, but it's never pretty. Yes He wants to hit, because we go to a sport like boxing, here in football they don't deserve those things.

But there is always a fan who is drunk, some idiot who jumps onto the field, but that shouldn't happen
