Angry soccer fans rush the field in Cairo

(CNN) — Angry crowds stormed a soccer field in Cairo Saturday during a match between Tunisia’s Club Africain and Egypt’s Zamalek, forcing the game to be cancelled, Zamalek said.

The Egyptian team was up 2-1 in the African Champions League match when its third goal was disallowed for an offside call, prompting crowds to rush the field.

Amateur video shot at the match shows a chaotic scene as fans run across the pitch and topple barricades.

“Police were protecting the referee and that angered the fans even more and everyone ran down to the field. People were kicking and hitting the players too. It was amazing,” said CNN iReporter Fatima Puskar.

The Egyptian Football Association offered an apology to the Tunisians and called for an emergency meeting Sunday.

Club Africain said its players and coaches left the stadium and arrived safely back at their hotel. The team is scheduled to arrive Sunday in Tunis.
