SN Sports: UEFA warns Wales players not to celebrate victory with their kids on pitch

UEFA Officials have warned players
ahead of Wednesday and Thursday's semi-finals not to share their immediate post-match celebrations with their children due to health and safety concerns.

Wales Heroes have been told "the
European Championship is not a
family party" in the build-up to their
clash with Cristiano Ronaldo's
Portugal on Wednesday night.

UEFA tournament director Martin
Kallen said the playing area should
be only for players, staff and "people with accreditation cards".

Kallen said: "A stadium is not the
most safe place for small kids. "It is
nice pictures. We are not 100 per
cent against it but we are cautious.

"It is getting more and more a habit
that entire family members would like to go on the pitch or into the
technical area.

"The principle is how far you go with having other people on the pitch than the players. People with
accreditation cards should be on the pitch and not more.”
