UEFA Champions League
Stewards attempt to clear the pitch of debris.
Angry Turkish fans in the 55,000-plus crowd rained toilet rolls, fax rolls, newspapers and other missiles on to the pitch in protest at UEFA's decision to switch the match between Chelsea and Besiktas from Istanbul.
UEFA decided on that move after a spate of bombings in Turkey left 61 people dead
Swedish referee Anders Frisk was forced to delay the re-start, ordering the players back to the dressing rooms until the paper was cleared.
