An explosion can be heard on the TV coverage during an international friendly between France vs Germany, taking place in Paris tonight.

Information is confused as the French capital reels from a series of attacks, including suspected bomb attacks near Stade de France, where the game was being played with President François Hollande in attendance.

A loud bang can be heard as France advance with the ball in the 19th minute and the crowd reacts to the noise.

The match continued for the full ninety minutes and finished 2-0 to the home side.

Some spectators have chosen to remain in the stadium following the final whistle:
