There were more pitch invaders than players.
Tens of thousands of fans paid a lot of money to watch Real Madrid and Roma. As a bonus, they got to see dozens of pitch invaders.
Pitch invaders are rare. It takes a special kind of guts (and lots of alcohol) for someone to run out on a pitch where everyone can see them get pummeled by security, but there were lots of special people at the Real Madrid-Roma preseason friendly in Dallas.
With the match nearing completion, dozens of fans took to the pitch. First, it was just one fan, but emboldened by that one fan's disregard for order, another ran on the pitch. Then a pair followed, and before long there were fans all over the pitch.
It was a mass, uncoordinated pitch invasion for no reason except that running around on the pitch while your favorite players are annoyed and pissed off at you is apparently a fun thing to do.
Of course, when you have so many fans running on the pitch, you're bound to have one who is not so great at walking. And that is how you end up with one fan trying to run on his face.
