Tragic. Latest news reports saying at least 6 survivors with hopes of more but the crash site can only be reached by land because of the terrible weather which obviously won't help rescue attempts.0

Fingers crossed for everyone on board.0

Terrible news, I fear for the families of those on board.0

Probably half their families were on board with the players - it was a charter plane.NornIrishAddick said:Terrible news, I fear for the families of those on board.

Tim Vickery said they've risen from the 4th division to what is South America's equivalent of the Europa league final in just 7 years. And now this tragedy occurs 48 hours before the biggest game in their history.0

Tragic loss of life, and a miracle that 6 people walked out of it. You wonder if they were all in one part of the plane that was slightly protected, as from reports some of them actually walked away.0

A shocking loss of life for the Leicester City of Brazilian football.
The second biggest cup competition in South America.
The David taking on the Goliath of Brazilian Football, perish before their biggest every game.
As the plane didn't burst into flame, i assume the pilot managed to jettison the fuel once he realized they couldn't reach an airport and hopefully the 5 live to tell the tale.
The randomness of life and death.
This football club won't die, they will have the love of the football World to start again after the mourning process.
RIP to the crew, Players, back up staff, media and every passenger who lost their life.1 -

Have watched this over and over, horrible how most people in that video are now dead. The pure joy on display and no one could have known that they were never going to get to play that game.guinnessaddick said:
