A 29-year-old football fan has been killed in overnight clashes between rival supporters in the Greek capital, prompting Uefa to postpone a Champions League qualifying game between AEK Athens and Croatia’s Dinamo Zagreb on Tuesday.

Eight fans were injured in the extensive clashes outside AEK’s stadium, while Greek police said they had made 88 arrests, mostly of Croatian supporters.
