A football derby in Tel Aviv between Hapoel and Maccabi has been cancelled after "violent riots", according to Israeli police.

Nine people were arrested on Sunday night at Bloomfield Stadium, a venue shared by both clubs. Hapoel were the home team for the game.

A statement from Israeli police said the game was called off "following disturbances and violent riots" in which 13 civilians and three officers were injured by pyrotechnic devices.

"These are very serious incidents that posed a real danger to the lives of police officers and civilians," the statement added.

Are you going to call the Israeli police anti-semitic 50pBaggieAl? and will you welcome these thugs with open arms if UK Gov changes there mind and allows them in?
