During the first half of the game, the intruders entered the field of play on three different occasions, the last of which prompted the referee to take the teams off for their own safety.

However, after several minutes off the field, the players returned and duly played out the final few minutes of the first half.

The pitch invaders appeared to all be wearing the same shirts with a message on the front.
