“Apparently it had been agreed to make a lap of honour with the team. Only: I didn't know anything about it. When I saw my teammates walk in, I didn't understand it..." he is quoted as saying by journalist Kristoff Terreur.

“Afterwards it turned out that they were just gathering inside, but I thought at that point: what a shame for the fans.

"Just when they were allowed back in the stadium and we had the chance to give them something back.

"I decided to go and applaud them on my own.

“It was all a big misunderstanding."
