At least 19
people died Sunday when soccer fans clashed with police outside a stadium in
Cairo, the health ministry said.
Egypt's
government-controlled Al-Ahram newspaper website reported that at least 30
people were killed.
The
violence took place ahead of a scheduled match between Zamalek and ENPPI. The
match went ahead.
Witnesses claim people
had been crushed in a stampede when police used teargas to break up a crowd
trying to enter the stadium from which they were barred.
