CAPE TOWN, South Africa (AP) — The football fan who invaded England’s dressing room and confronted David Beckham after a match will go on trial on Friday.
Pavlos Joseph appeared Monday in a Cape Town court for the second time to face trespassing charges, and looked far more relaxed than the previous day when he fled the tribunal with a brown sweater over his face as he was surrounded by cameramen and photographers.
Authorities said that his passport would remain held by South African police, and that Joseph can’t attend matches until a final ruling is delivered.
