Projectile causes player鈥檚 death
Print Edition
THE Confederation of African Football has called for “exemplary sanctions” following the death of JS Kabylie striker Albert Ebosse, who was killed by a projectile thrown from the crowd in an Algerian league match on Saturday.
The Cameroon forward was struck on the head by an object allegedly thrown from a section of his club’s own fans as the players left the field at the end of a 1-2 defeat to USM Alger in Tizi Ouzou, a match in which he had scored his side’s goal. JS Kabylie confirmed in a statement posted on the club’s website that the 24-year-old had passed away in hospital later, though it did not confirm the exact cause of death.
CAF President Issa Hayatou reacted by calling for member associations to act strongly against fan violence. “African football cannot be the breeding ground for hooliganism whatsoever. We expect exemplary sanctions to be taken against this grave act of violence,” he said in a statement yesterday.
