BREAKING NEWS: Sunshine Stars held hostage in Cairo

Nigerian Club Sunshine Stars were on Sunday held hostage by Egyptian fans few hours before their CAF Champions League Semifinal second leg meeting with Al Ahly.

According to an official of the club Mike Idoko,  - Egyptian fans stormed our hotel few hours ago and held us hostage for more than an hour saying we should remain indoor.

 Angered
-We just got security men around us and we are about leaving for the Stadium under with the protection of the military men. This is not the type of experience anyone should have.

The fans were believed to be angered by the fact that since domestic football in Egypt is under suspension, there is no reason for the match between Al Ahly and Sunshine Stars to go on.

The match billed for 18:00 Nigerian Time Kick off is now expected to be delayed.
