SAINT-ETIENNE, France — A fan had to be wrestled away from Guinea forward Aliou Balde after rushing the field in another security incident during the Olympic men's soccer tournament. The fan raced onto the pitch at the end of the United States' 3-0 win against Guinea at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard in Saint-Etienne. The same venue was the scene of violence and chaos when Morocco's win against Argentina at the start of the tournament was delayed by around two hours after Moroccan fans ran onto the field and threw bottles to protest a late goal that was eventually disallowed.
