Police step up security at Egyptian embassy
November 18, 2009
ALGIERS, Algeria (AP) -Algerian police have increased security near the Egyptian embassy before a crucial playoff match to determine which of the two country's teams will make it to the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Violence erupted following Algeria's 2-0 loss to Egypt over the weekend that forced a playoff match in Khartoum, Sudan.
Authorities are bracing for more violence which targeted the embassy and the sites of Egyptian businesses such as Egypt Air and telecoms group Orascom.
Some Egypt fans pelted Algeria's team bus with rocks and several players were injured before Saturday's clash in Cairo.
