The man from the western German town of Osnabrück was spotted climbing on the beams under the roof during the match. Police kept him under surveillance until the end of the match, when a special task force removed and arrested him.

The day after the incident, police announced that the man had only wanted to take photographs from the unusual vantage point.

Media had speculated over a major security breach given he was masked and carrying a rucksack, but police said the bag contained camera equipment.
