“I just spotted an open door and I thought I will stick my head through there but it was just a closed-in room but I found an Estonian tracksuit and I just threw it on. … I threw the bag ofballs over my shoulder and just went for it. I didn’t know what to do, to be honest, so I thought I’d better go into the Estonian dugout. No one said anything to me and then I realized Iwas sitting beside their manager [Tarmo Ruutli]. It was about 10 or 15 minutes into the match when a UEFA official got suspicious of me. He came over and, after talking to me, told me I had to move.Even after the match I just strolled out on to the pitch.”
