The players will have to wait for the match to kick off.

Details: The start of today's Europa League Matchday 7 clash between Utrecht and Genk has been postponed for safety reasons.

According to available information, there were security issues at the stadium after Genk supporters failed to pass security checks before entering, and a number of Belgian fans were found to be without tickets for the game.

This situation forced the Dutch police to intervene, resulting in clashes at the stadium between Club Brugge supporters and Utrecht city police.

The exact kick-off time will be announced later.
