As is the case every month, IMAGO's picture desk chooses the best photos from the millions of photos they receive. To spotlight these photos and the efforts of our visual storytellers, The Game Magazine showcases the top photos in three categories: Entertainment, News, and Sports.

The match was stopped from the halftime and later canceled due to the fatal shooting incident in Brussels on Monday evening, which resulted in the loss of two Swedish lives.
