Minute of silence at Sweden-Denmark football game
A minute of silence for the victims of the Paris attacks was held ahead of the European Championship qualifier between Sweden and Denmark.
Both teams stood with their heads bowed as 50,000 fans inside Friends Arena in Solna, Sweden, turned silent. The walls of the stadium were lit up in the colors of the French flag: blue, white and red.
Organizers said security was stepped up at the stadium due to the bloodshed in Paris, which started with explosions outside the Stade de France during a friendly match between France and Germany.
