A shocking report which has gone viral online has revealed that a
pitch invader attacked a goalkeeper, Aly Keita and issued bomb threats
during a Swedish league football match between Joenkoepings Soedra and
Oestersunds FK on Monday night.
It was learnt that the football game which was 1-1 at the time, had
to be abandoned at the final minute after the invader who was pictured
wearing a mask and later revealed to be a 17-year-old boy, attacked
Ostersunds goalkeeper from behind, beat him up before he was arrested by
police and stadium security officials.

Keita later confirmed he had been struck in the temple, saying:
“I am shocked and angry. It is awful that something like this could
happen. I just saw that someone was behind me. I ran and then stopped
because I thought he was gone.
"Then I was in shock and didn’t understand what had happened. I
didn’t hear him say anything. It is sad that someone can do something
like that and ruin an evening. It is a sad day for football. But
football is bigger than these idiots.
“I was a bit dizzy but now I am fine. I am going with the rest
of the team to the hotel and go to bed. The police asked if I wanted to
go to hospital but I don’t like hospitals,” he told Aftonbladet.
Peter Nordengard who is the Jonkoping police commander revealed how the attacker also claimed he had left a bomb at the stands: 'He
is under arrest, we have informed the prosecutor of the arrest and
interviews will be conducted with him about the suspected breaches of
the law.'
He added that a search of the stadium revealed no evidence of the bomb the young culprit claimed had been left in the stands.
