FOOTBALL TRAGEDY: Zambian Doctor Dies In NIgeria After Fans Invaded The Football Pitch

Sports Correspondent

Nigerian fans Tuesday invaded the pitch after a 1:1 draw against Ghana forcing players and officials to run for their dear life into the changing room.

Unfortunately, FIFA DOPING CONTROL OFFICER Dr. Joseph Kabungo did not make it out alive.

Dr Joseph Kabungo, a Zambian medical practitioner, is reported to have lost consciousness after he was beaten and stepped on, as fans try to make their way out of the stadium due to stampede.

He suffered a cardiac arrest during the commotion and was pronounced dead soon after.

Dr. Joseph Kabungo is CAF medical committee member who was also recently appointed to the FIFA medical committee.

He served as the Zambian team doctor from 2003 to 2016.

A very big loss to the football medical community. May his gentle soul find eternal rest.
