CAIRO: The Egyptian football league will resume on April 15 after a break of nearly three months due to the crisis in the country that led to the resignation of former president Hosni Mubarak.

The Egyptian Football Association says the league will end on July 10.

The league was suspended in early February because of anti-government protests in Cairo and other cities, which led to the ouster Mubarak after a nearly 30-year authoritarian reign.
