Some eager Djurgarden fans found themselves with tickets for the home side.

Many of these fans surprisingly jumped over barriers to unite with their fellow supporters when they realized that the club hadn’t sold out its tickets completely.

Video clips captured fans blatantly disregarding the stewards’ warnings as they climbed over to join the away supporters.

Footage of Djurgarden fans breaching the away section quickly spread online.

One observer noted: “This is genuinely hilarious.”

Another remarked: “It’s quite embarrassing that they secured home tickets for a European semi-final.”

A different viewer stated: “I doubt this is permitted. They should remain in their designated away section.”

One user shouted: “Get them out.”
