Pornographic noises disrupted Saturday evening’s Euro 2024 draw in Hamburg. The interruption, which sounded like sexual moaning, was initially heard after Switzerland were drawn in the same group as Scotland, Hungary and hosts Germany, prompting smirks among the audience. The draw host, Giorgio Marchetti, the deputy general secretary of Uefa, attempted to take control of the situation, saying: “There is some noise here that... has now stopped. No noise any more.” But further sporadic interruptions were heard as the draw continued. Asked if he had noticed any unusual noises in the hall during the draw, Gareth Southgate said: “I did. I’m assuming it was some sort of a prank, but it was hard to really make out what it was.” Similar noises disrupted the BBC’s live coverage of an FA Cup match between Wolves and Liverpool in January. Daniel Jarvis, an internet prankster who claimed responsibility for that incident, also claimed responsibility for the latest stunt. “Listen that was us, that was us,” he said in a video posted on X. “We got it in there, we put the phone in there, we rung it.”
