More than 70 dead and 1,000 injured after pitch invasion in Egypt

At least 73 football fans have been killed and 1,000 others left injured after riots broke out at a match in Egypt.

Seconds after the referee blew his whistle, supporters swarmed onto the pitch throwing stones, fireworks and bottles at rival fans, players and security officers in the city of Port Said, officials said.

It was the worst incident of soccer violence in Egypt and the deadliest worldwide since 1996.
