Egyptian top goal-scorer, Hossam Hassan will go on
trial on Saturday for allegedly assaulting a government photographer. A
court official said the incident is alleged happened during clashes after
a match on Friday between players of Al-Masry - the Port Said team
where Hassan is now head coach - and Ghazl el-Mahalla. They drew
2-2.
Hassan was filmed apparently chasing the
photographer across the pitch then punching him in the head, taking his camera
and smashing it on the ground next to the pitch, AFP reports.
On Saturday, the Egyptian Football Association suspended
Hassan from taking part in his club's next three matches and fined him 10,000 Egyptian
pounds ($1,100; £830).
The club was also fined 20,000 Egyptian pounds.
