He managed to get to Romanian star Nicolae Stanciu, but was swiftly whisked away by stewards before anything happened.

The game quickly resumed with Romania leading 3-0 in the Group E clash.

There was an incredible atmosphere inside the Allianz Arena in Munich.

That was largely down to the Romanian supporters who made a raucous noise that spurred on their side.

Some could even be seen in tears as their side marched to a first Euros victory in 24 years.

Stanciu broke the deadlock with a screamer shortly before the half-hour mark, ripping a thunderbolt into the top corner.

Razvan Marin then doubled Romania’s lead eight minutes into the second period with another long-range strike – this time zipping into the bottom corner.

And Denis Dragus made sure of the points four minutes later, stabbing home from close range.

Romania and Ukraine are in Group E alongside Belgium and Slovakia.

Next up for Romania is a clash with Belgium on Saturday, before they take on Slovakia on June 26.

They have only qualified out of the group once before at the Euros – in 2000 when they reached the quarter-finals before losing 2-0 to eventual runners-up Italy.
