Power line kills Nigerian fans watching Manchester United matchThe fans had been watching Manchester United's Europa League quarterfinal second leg match at a viewing centre in Nigeria. Seven Nigerian football fans have died when a high-powered electricity line fell onto a building where they were watching Manchester United Europa League game against Anderlecht on television late on Thursday (Friday NZ Time), police said. A transformer exploded, sending a high-tension power wire falling onto the building's roof during the broadcast of the Europa League quarterfinal, Tony Ine, a local resident who was walking past at the time, told Reuters. Our thoughts go out to the United fans, their friends and families affected by the tragedy in Calabar, Nigeria, yesterday. pic.twitter.com/WGnHAxpjMV — Manchester United (@ManUtd) April 21, 2017- AAP
