Apparently Marc Bartra taken to hospital. Not a serious injury. No way will the game go ahead.

Although an inevitable decision, it just goes to show these days how terrorism does win. It does impact on our lives, there's no getting away from it and we can't just carry on minding our own business without some consequences resulting from these horrible events.

"We are hearing reports that Marc Bartra is okay...we're hearing it's an superficial injury to his arm."

Shocking news and confirms that football is one of the targets given the attacks on stadia not too long ago.
Will the half hearted pat downs entering grounds continue or will there be Olympic type security set up, with several layers of security to pass through before getting to the ground. Are we likely to armed police outside grounds in the UK, or is mainland Europe the main target.

The damage to the coach would suggest a large firework.

Thanks, not surprised. The fact that the game is going ahead tomorrow would seem to show it wasn't terrorist-related.

The people of Dortmund are offering bed and breakfast to the Monaco fans who've travelled.

Maybe they had arranged to travel back overnight? I don't know. I'm just reporting what is being said on Twitter by the Dortmund club and fans.
I would assume they'll have to stay an extra night after tomorrow's match...
