Yesterday, the Nations League final took place, with Portugal clinching victory and the trophy in a dramatic penalty shootout. However, the match was overshadowed by tragic events in the stands.
Details: According to Reuters, citing a UEFA statement, a supporter fell from the second tier of the main stand onto the lower seats during the closing minutes of the match. Immediate assistance was provided, but medical staff were unable to save him, and the fan was pronounced dead at 0:06 local time in Munich. UEFA has expressed its condolences to the fan's family and friends.
Reminder: Barcelona president Joan Laporta was also present at the final, seizing the moment to personally lobby UEFA president Aleksander Čeferin for the lightest possible sanction against the Catalan club over financial fair play violations.
