Pro-Palestinian protesters interrupt FIFA congress

A group of around 150 pro-Palestinian protestors gathered to chant outside Zurich's Hallenstadion before the congress started.

The pro-Palestinian protesters briefly interrupted the FIFA congress on Friday with world football's governing body set to vote later on whether to expel Israel from the organisation.

Two female protesters halted president Sepp Blatter's opening address, waving red cards at FIFA representatives and chanting 'Israel out!" before being escorted out of the hall by security guards.
