A female fan who disguised herself to infiltrate the male-only domain of a football stadium in Saudi Arabia has been red-carded, a police statement obtained on Sunday says.
The female supporter managed to sneak into a Friday fixture of the Abdul Latif Jameel Saudi professional league at Al-Jawhara stadium in the Red Sea city of Jeddah.
She wore men's clothes "and deliberately covered her head so as not to be detected by security and not to draw attention," police spokesman Atti al-Qurashi said in the statement.
A video posted on YouTube purported to show her sitting by herself among some empty seats in a section reserved for fans of the visiting Al-Shabab club from the capital Riyadh.
A man nearby appears to be looking intently at the woman who sported glasses and black attire. She seemed to be wearing a large hat with a scarf in Al-Shabab's black and white colours for the match against Jeddah's Al-Ittihad.
Qurashi said the presence of the woman, who bought her ticket online, was "against the regulations".
He did not elaborate on whether she would face any charges but said her case "has been forwarded to the specialised authorities."
He also "confirmed the need to comply with the instructions and regulations issued by the official authorities with regard to this matter."
