The UEFA Conference League final between Crystal Palace and Rayo Vallecano experienced tense moments when the match had to be temporarily stopped during the first half. The game, played in Leipzig, was being contested with high intensity and a strong atmosphere inside the stadium until the referee decided to halt play after receiving an alert from the stands.

As a result, it has become increasingly common for referees to stop matches as a precaution whenever alerts are received from stadium security or medical staff.
