Angry Fans Storm Football Pitch And Clash With Riot Police During Greek Cup S/Final [PICS]
Their was pandemonium during the final seconds of the Greek Cup semi-final between PAOK and Olympiakos.
The match had to be suspended after supporters clashed with riot police.
With Olympiakos 2-1 up in the match, PAOK were denied a late penalty to the fury of their supporters, who began to throw flares onto the pitch. This action invited security officials to intervene in the match and Riot Police were seen patrolling. The match was called off in the 90th minute after fans broke onto the pitch to confront the police.
Olympiakos will be awarded an automatic 3-0 victory from the match - which was only the first leg - to take into the return leg on 6 April. Rather than needing to overturn just a one-goal deficit, PAOK will now need to score three times away from home to level proceedings in the tie.
