A pitch invader took a Palestine flag onto the field during Tunisia vs France at the Qatar World Cup.
The move comes after a fan evaded security while carrying a rainbow flag onto the field during Portugal vs Uruguay.
The supporter, wearing a Tunisia home jersey, sprinted onto the Education City Stadium pitch in the 67th minute.
He then performed two somersaults before security eventually caught up, tackling him to the turf and dragging him off the pitch.
The supporter who entered the field of play on Monday at the Lusail Stadium also displayed a “Save Ukraine” message on the front of his t-shirt.
The back of his t-shirt had the message: “Respect for Iranian Women”, with three security guards manhandling the fan and removing him from the pitch within seconds of entering the field of play.
It is the latest example of a highly politicised World Cup in Qatar, with Fifa performing a u-turn over its stance to allow fans to wear rainbow items at stadia, as detailed by the Independent.
The colours have become one of the tense moments of the tournament, as so many players, officials and fans want to make a gesture of solidarity towards the LGBTQ+ community over Qatar’s laws and culture around homosexuality.
Tunisia were leading 1-0 at the time of the incident, thanks to Wahbi Khazri’s goal.
