had to be stopped after pro-Palestinian protesters stormed the pitch.
Supporters of reportedly Turkish origin ran onto the field in the
Austrian stadium where the game was played and headed for the Maccabi
players, sparking ugly scenes.
One of the players is seen to trip a fan before punches were thrown.
The Maccabi players - some of whom retaliated - managed to leave the
field unhurt.The incident comes amid fears of growing anti-Semitism in
Europe at time when Israeli forces are locked in a violent conflict
with militant group Hamas in Gaza.
