Ugandan footballer slumps, dies watching EPL


A player of Simba FC in Uganda, Fahad Musana, collapsed and died on Sunday while watching an English Premier League match, africanFootball.com reports.



Musana, who featured in his team’s 1-0 win over Entebbe FC in a Uganda Premier League match reportedly collapsed after Frank Lampard equalized for Manchester City against Chelsea.

The Head Coach for Simba FC, Fred Kajoba, told africanFootball.com that the player even trained with the team on Sunday and told his friends he was going to spend his afternoon watching the English Premiership games.

“I think he suffered a heart problem when the team he supported Chelsea conceded the equalizer,” Kajoba told africanFootball.com.

Musana reportedly suffered a heart problem while watching the match in a video Hall in Bombo Town where Simba FC is based.

Another Simba FC player, Gerald Bagoole, said they trained and had lunch with Musana on Sunday.
“It was a big loss and we shall miss him,” added.

The club announced that the player will be laid to rest in Iganga District Tuesday.
