Israeli football club Maccabi Haifa's Champions League qualifying match against Hamrun Spartans of Malta had to be halted for 30 minutes on Tuesday following clashes between fans after Maltese supporters chanted "Palestine, Palestine".

Tensions rose as Maccabi supporters launched flares onto the pitch in the Centenary Stadium in Ta' Qali in Malta.

Five Israeli supporters were arrested, according to The Times of "Israel", with Malta Today reporting that two were to be formally charged on Wednesday.
