A fan causes a stir at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar by running onto the field with a rainbow flag during Portugal's game against Uruguay.

Folders overwhelm him.

Update from November 28, 9:25 p.m .:

Polarizing scene at the World Cup game between Portugal and Uruguay.

A speedster sprinted onto the field at Lusail Iconic Stadium just after the break.

The young man carried a flag in the colors of the rainbow.

Folders ran after him and literally overwhelmed him, as reported by tz.de.

Striking: The director did not continue to show the scene.

The man was only seen in a short sequence as he ran past the players.

ARD commentator Tom Bartels complained: "Does it really need to be cut?" Bartels continued: "It seems downright grotesque if the jury doesn't show it.

That's censorship and FIFA doesn't need it."

Rainbow protest at the 2022 World Cup: Portugal vs Uruguay – man runs onto the field with a flag

It is not yet known who the man was or where he came from.

Nor whether he was arrested for his protest or what the local authorities' reaction was.

According to Bartels, he threw the rainbow flag away before the stewards led him out of the interior.

The world football association Fifa had prevented political protests in the run-up to the tournament.

Among other things, Germany and other top nations wanted to appear with a one-love bandage.

The man's blue T-shirt read "Save Ukraine", ergo, save Ukraine.

On the back read "Respect for Iranian Women".

Ukraine sees itself exposed to Russia's war of aggression, but women in Iran have been taking to the streets for weeks to demand their rights.

Same-sex relationships are illegal in Qatar.

The state apparatus is also accused of discriminating against women.

Nevertheless, Fifa had awarded the World Cup to the Emirate, which drew a lot of criticism in the West.

The LGTB movement against discrimination against same-sex partners uses the rainbow color as a symbol of their diversity.

Uruguay knocked out Portugal in the round of 16 at the 2018 World Cup

Uruguay's start to the tournament was rather disappointing.

Although "La Celeste" was the better team against South Korea, in the end it was only enough for a tired 0:0.

Above all, the offensive department around Darwin Núñez, Luis Suárez and Edison Cavani remained largely pale.

However, Uruguay's direct record against Portugal should be encouraging.
