in #news7 years ago (edited)

A 24 year old boy, Emmanuel Offin, a Chelsea fan collapsed and died last week Wednesday at Asuoyeboah in the Kumasi Metropolis after the unprecedented defeat to Chelsea.e0823a5e-8ab0-4c81-8249-2f5702bfe9e1.jpg

The family of the deceased describes him as a die hard supporter of the Blues and couldn't withstand the shame the Catalonia's brought to them, hence died on the way home after fainting just few minutes to the final whistle on the Wednesday.

The family disclosed to me when I visited the family house at Asuoyeboah on Friday, March 16, 2018 that the body has been deposited at Okomfo Anokye Teaching Hospital Morgue for autopsy.c83b8417-ca9d-44e7-ac98-f3971e14c7d8-236x420.jpg

The father of the deceased who's identified only as Mr. Offin confirmed the news to me. He furthered said that, the death of his son has been a big blow to him and the family as a whole.

Police at Abuakwa have began an investigation whilst family of the deceased still mourning.

Barcelona eliminated Chelsea from the Champions League at the last 16 stage as they beat them 3 goals to nil at Camp Nou and continued to qualify to the next round of the competition on 4-1 aggregate.

Very terrible news. People must take it easy with football. It is a powerful tool but we must make sure not to get too attached.

Exactly bro

Football is supposed to be fun.............but this guy taking it to a whole new level.......so sad!

I don't understand this guy. The defeat was not a sudden defeat. In fact, Barça had a 2-0 lead in the first half and added the 3rd goal later in the second. It's not like they scored them in the very last minute.
The players get paid whether they lose or not, and you die because they lost?

I love the analysis you have just putting down pundit @serwaa

A sad one...thanks for the updating us on the news tho.

Hmmmm...thanks dear

This football hmmmmm, that is why I don't support any club ooo

Why are you afraid to die?

Hmmm, it's really unfortunate, that is whythe Bible says we should love God with all our hearts. It's a lesson to all of us, we should seek the kingdom of God first and shun the pleasures of this earth because it only leads us to destruction.

You are right bro

Hmmm this is serious ooo..... My condolences tho
