The rainbow flag took over Melbourne's Etihad Stadium Saturday night in a powerful statement of acceptance and love. 。

Rainbows lined the field Saturday, while umpires waved rainbow flags when points were scored. Even the TV commentators wore rainbow scarves. 。
For one night at least, everyone was welcome.。
