Denmark v Sweden (UEFA Euro 2008 qualifying)

The Euro 2008 qualifying match between Denmark and Sweden on June 2, 2007, was marred by a fan attack. With the score at 3-3 and in the 89th minute, referee Herbert Fandel awarded Sweden a penalty and sent off Danish midfielder Christian Poulsen for punching Markus Rosenberg. A Danish fan then ran onto the pitch and attacked Fandel. The match was immediately abandoned, and UEFA later awarded Sweden a 3-0 victory. The incident led to significant controversy and disciplinary action.
