Stewards in the stadium at Denmark's Euro 2020 quarter-final against Czech Republic appear to have confiscated a rainbow flag from spectators. The moment two members of security staff at the Baku Olympic Stadium approached the Denmark supporters and took the flag off them was caught on camera. The incident also appeared to draw a reaction from the fans immediately surrounding them. The rainbow flag is a symbol of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBT) pride and LGBT social movements. Fans of the Netherlands were keen to make clear their opposition in response to the recent introduction of anti-LGBTQ+ laws in Hungary.
