Watch: Plague of moths invade Stade de France before Euro 2016 final

It's a good thing Mark Clattenburg is refereeing the final of Euro 2016, because his reptilian shenanigans will be needed to clean up the pitch at the Stade de France before kickoff.
On Sunday, ahead of the battle between France and Portugal at Les Bleus' fortress, a swarm of moths invaded the pitch, making it tough for Clattenburg to inspect the goal-line technology.

Even the team sheets weren't spared by the moths ...
