matty Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 The plane carrying Chapecoense to their game against Nacional for the Copa Sudamericana crashed in Columbia. At least 10 are hurt and little known is at the current time. Hope everyone is ok. 2016 has been the worst. EDIT: Plane ran out of fuel and CONMEBOL have suspended the Copa Sudamerica EDIT: 6 survivors on the flight of 72-81. https://www.rt.com/news/368510-brazilian-football-team-plane/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moldy9 Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 That's very sad. I didn't believe it at first when my wife told me this from South American news. I hope MLS give a tribute before Wednesday's game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzly Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 3 Chapecoense players who did not make the trip sitting in the dressing room in shock and the reaction of some fans. For me it brings back bad memories of when the Russian hockey team I support, Lokomotiv Yaroslavl, was also killed in a plane crash a few years ago.
