Tension before GKS Katowice vs Hapoel Tel Aviv Conference League qualifier

UEFA imposed extraordinary precautionary measures ahead of the Conference League third qualifying round match between GKS Katowice and Hapoel Tel Aviv, with organisers threatening to suspend the game. The heightened security follows last year's scandalous behaviour by Israeli fans. No politically banned banners appeared in the stands, but tension rose when the Israeli players came out for their warm-up at the Katowice stadium.
