Watch: Gaza football fans watch World Cup from rubbleClose

Hundreds of football fans in Gaza watched Tuesday's Argentina v Egypt World Cup game amongst the ruins of shattered buildings in Nuseirat.

Many waved flags for Egypt, which shares a border with the war-torn enclave and has been one of the mediators in ceasefire negotiations between Hamas and Israel.

The game ended 3-2 with Argentina advancing to the quarter-finals.
