On the 1st May, a large group of Nigerian boys gathered to watch the Liverpool-Chelsea game in a public place. During the game a Chelsea fan was upset that Chelsea was loosing to Liverpool. A Liverpool fan who was watching the game as well was gloating when Liverpool was 1 nil up against Chelsea. The Chelsea fan didn't like this so he started an argument with the Liverpool fan(these guys were in their mid or late 20's),the argument got worse and heated when Liverpool scored a 2nd goal.
The Chelsea fan went out to get a broken bottle of star, he tried to stab the Liverpool fan with it but the Liverpool fan overpowered him and stabbed him with it instead.
The Chelsea fan was rushed to the hospital but died later.
The Liverpool fan has since being arrested.

Very true!
That was a case of self defence ain't premeditated murder alas! If d plaintiff needs a lawyer i could arrange one for him free of charge.. what if d victim had suceeded in stabbing d accussed person? ..however, may his soul rest in Peace.. some guys are football fanatics! my gosh!
@ tj,'Self Defence'. My thoughts exactly. I am sorry to say this but, if the Chelsea fan hadn't picked up that bottle to stab the other guy, he would have still bn alive today. He brought the weapon with which he was killed with. I hope the other guy is only charged with Man slaughter and not Murder, cos he only defended himself.
This is the second case i am hearing about this kind of fanaticism in nigeria,the last was an arsenal fan that was stabbed by a bolton fan.This is really pathetic.Why would u pick a bottle to stab a fellow human being becos of football.sad
Nigerians are football fanaftics. That's not an excuse though.
