Wembley arch lit up in Belgian colours

The iconic Wembley arch has been lit up in the colours of the Belgian national flag in tribute to the victims of yesterday's terrorist attacks in Brussels.

More than 30 people were killed and hundreds more injured in coordinated attacks in the Belgian capital, with blasts at an airport and a busy metro station.

A number of landmarks, including the Eiffel Tower in Paris and the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, have paid tribute to the victims by lighting up in the black, yellow and red of the Belgian flag, and now Wembley has followed suit.

Belgium's friendly match against Portugal on Tuesday has been moved to Leiria as a result of the attacks.
