Lindelof, 29, led his nation last night in their Euro 2024 qualifier against Belgium.

However, the game was abandoned at half-time after two people both believed to be wearing Sweden football shirts were gunned down in the street.

The Manchester United star’s wife shared two touching posts on her story expressing her worry for the fans and her husband.

She shared a photo of Sweden fans to her Instagram story and captioned it: “There are no words. My thoughts go out to all those affected yesterday.

“To the victims and their families. To all Swedish fans. To Sweden.”

A picture of Lindelof followed after to which Maja pleaded: “And I just want you home now.”

The score was 1-1 when the game was suspended and 35,000 fans were told to remain in the King Baudouin Stadium.

ISIS fanatic Abdesalem Lassoued, 45, claimed responsibility for the shooting.

The attack took place 45 minutes before kick-off and happened just three miles from the stadium.

Police tracked Lassoued down to a cafe after he went on the run for around 12 hours following his horror rampage.

And this morning Belgian authorities confirmed cops hunting him had shot a suspect in a cafe in the Schaerbeek neighbourhood of Brussels.

An ambulance was seen leaving the scene before prosecutors confirmed he had died.

The Sweden captain told the press conference that the players never felt in any danger – but also claimed the match should NOT be replayed or completed.

Lindelof said: “Our security team handled it well and put us at ease. They explained that this is the safest place to be in Brussels.”

He added: “Belgium are already qualified and we don’t have the opportunity to get to the European Championship, so I see no reason to play [replay the game].”

The Man Utd defender has also shared a statement on his Twitter to send his condolences to those affected by the attacks.

Lindelof said: “I’m shocked and devastated by the terrible incidents in Brussels with the cold-hearted attacks on our fellow Swedes.

“I’m lost for words for the cruelty and inhumanity, I want to send my deepest condolences to the families and friends of those affected.

“At the same time, my thoughts go out to all the supporters in Belgium last night, no one should ever go to a game of football and feel unsafe when supporting their team.”
