During a World Cup qualifier between Singapore and Uzbekistan five days later , a fan was observed to have rushed onto the area between the pitch and the stands, where he confronted Uzbekistan fans. He was later seen being ushered away by security.
In response to queries from CNA, Sports Hub said pitch invasions or other breaches of security will be dealt with"severely". “The stadium is set up to bring fans as close to the action as possible. Pitch invasions do happen across the globe as passions run high and fans look to get closer to their heroes," said Sports Hub.
"Regardless, the safety of players and fans are our number one priority and security checks are in place for anyone entering the stadium. Pitch invasions or other breaches of security will be dealt with severely and trespassers will be handed over to the police."Sports Hub said it has"learnt" from the incident but declined to disclose enhanced security measures.
"We have learnt from this incident and will continue to enhance security measures to ensure that both fans and players have the best experience," said Sports Hub. "Unfortunately, people who breach security measures will make the experience worse for all involved moving forward.”
