JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - Two people have been killed and several injured in a stampede at South Africa's FNB Stadium during a soccer match between Soweto rivals Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates, Johannesburg city officials said on Saturday.

 

"The city has been notified of two fatalities," said Luyanda Mfeka, the spokesman for the office of the mayor of Johannesburg.

 

He said the cause of the stampede, which took place at one of the gates of the stadium that hosted the 2010 World Cup final, was being investigated. Live television coverage of the match, which the Chiefs won 1-0, had shown no obvious disturbance.

 

In April 2001, a similar stampede saw 63 people crushed to death at Ellis Park, venue for the 1995 Rugby World Cup final, when Chiefs and Pirates met in a midweek league match. It was the country's worst sporting tragedy and came as spectators broke through fences in an effort to get into the stadium.

 

Chiefs and Pirates are South Africa's best supported clubs and have a rivalry stretching back almost 50 years. Saturday’s match was a traditional pre-season friendly between the two clubs.

Shame 2 people get killed in a soccer field stampede and this makes world headlines.

50000 white farmers brutally raped, sliced and diced, men, women and children, murdered in white genocide commited by blacks and the world remains silent.

I personaly have lost 8 families of my friends to this scourge in South Africa.

The world condones this action...

Change the killed numbers to 70 000 plus plus, from 1994 until now. Does not include the figures in mainstream media but from actual police files.

Typical racist tripe. No verifiable source cited. 

Are whites really being killed 'like flies'?

South African musician Steve Hofmeyr has claimed that the number of white South Africans killed by blacks would fill a soccer stadium, that white Afrikaners are being killed "like flies" and that a white farmer is murdered every five days. But the claims are incorrect and grossly exaggerated. In fact, whites are less likely to be murdered than any other race group.

I was also attacked on my farm in 2013, I survived. Those who shoot back live longer than those who don't.

End of my comment.

Go visit and see, ask around, for yourself.
