France and Germany were playing a friendly football match in the Stade de France when all the fans in the stadium heard a loud boom. It was perhaps the first of multiple terror strikes that left over 100 dead.
This was later followed the sound of two other bombs. The crowd however, continued to watch the match even as they continued to follow the developments outside the stadium on their phones.
At the end of the match, there were restrictions on which exits spectators could leave the stadium from, resulting in people trooping on to the pitch as they waited to leave. But even as they left the stadium many fans sang the French national anthem, La Marseillaise, in one of the most heartening videos from the incident.
Here’s the video:
