Three pitch invaders at the start of the Champions League final at Wembley have been arrested. The clash between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund had just kicked off when three separate individuals made it onto the pitch, approaching some of the players in the process. The third outran security for some moments and almost made it back in among the fans before being caught.

Dortmund’s own profligacy ended up costing them dear after a string of first-half chances were missed, including Niclas Fullkrug hitting the post. Wembley Stadium confirmed arrests were made after the game was halted inside the opening minute as three separate pitch invaders evaded security. When the game got back under way it was Dortmund, watched on by former boss Jurgen Klopp, who were the better side but a gritty Real performance ultimately saw them come out on top once more.
