A suicide attacker attempted to enter the Stade de France to cause maximum damage during France's clash against Germany on Friday night, according to a security official.

A security official working at the Stade de France has claimed that one of the attackers had a ticket to the match and tried to enter the Paris venue.

Friday night's friendly international between France and Germany was overshadowed by events off the field, as a coordinated terror attack took place in the surrounding areas of the famous stadium.

At least three people are believed to have died outside the ground as a result of numerous explosions, but a guard referred to only as Zouheir has suggested that the toll could have potentially been much higher.

According to The Wall Street Journal, one attacker was discovered wearing an explosive vest when searched at the entrance around 15 minutes into the contest.

It was then, Zouheir claims, that the attacker detonated the vest, having been denied the chance to enter the Stade de France.

Three minutes later a second person blew himself up in the vicinity of the ground, while a third suicide attacker is said to have detonated explosives at a nearby McDonald's chain.

A number of sporting events in France have been postponed due to the planned attacks, which has so far claimed the lives of at least 127 people, but England's international meeting with France on Tuesday evening is expected to go ahead as initially planned.
