In Santiago de Chile, there are tragic consequences before the game outside the stadium.
Before a game of the Copa Libertadores, two young fans cost their lives and shaked South American football. Outside the stadium in Santiago de Chile, the duel between Colo Colo, team of the long -time Bundesliga professional Arturo Vidal, and the Brazilian club Fortaleza, met police and fans. The officials tried to block the way into the arena.
When a barrier fence overturned, two people suffered fatal injuries, the local authorities said. According to media reports, it was a 13-year-old and an 18-year-old. It is currently still being examined whether the police were involved in the fall of the fence. As the police confirmed, investigations against an official were admitted.
The game between Colo Colo and Fortaleza was kicked off despite the tragic events. Due to riots and a place storm, the demolition later took place.
