Plane carrying Chapecoense squad crashes in Colombia.

[Notorious Big]

This is very sad news for whole world ,you lost your life in such bizzare way.

 

[SuperGoon]

This is what the game is all about. Good sportsmanship.

It's important to remember such disasters as things that bring the community closer together and not just tragedies. That club will never be the same.

Horrible news. Life isn't fair

Chapecoense fans gather in grief at team's stadium in Brazil
Mourners wear football team’s colours and place tributes outside club’s arena in Chapecó after plane crash in Colombia

In a display of solidarity, a number of other clubs in Brazil changed their profile images on social media to a black-and-white version of Chapecoense’s badge and tweeted the same message: “Today, every club in Brazil is one. #ForçaChape.”

Chapecó city hall announced a 30-day period of mourning for those killed, cancelling lessons in local schools and suspending all festivities planned over Christmas and new year.

Very upsetting. Life is so precious and it could be over in a blink. Thoughts are with the survivors and may the lost lives rest in peace.

This is truly heart wrenching.

May God rest their souls, give strength to their families and fans

Actually, besides the well known Torino in 1949 and Man United team in 1958, there has been a number of other football and sport related planes/ flights disasters, among them, the Allianza Lima team in 87 (43 players) and the entire Zambia National team (plane crash in Gabon) in 1993.

L'Equipe has a list:

This is so heartbreaking

So far, all Brazilian clubs, Serie A clubs, and Benfica have offered to send them players on loan free of charge, probably for their next season. Sounds like for right now, the club has been made immune to relegation. Adding that to Atletico National's generous ceding of the final, it's nice to see football sticking together with Chapecoense during this troubling time.

This has hit me harder than sad news normally does... I wish all the best to those close to the players and staff who have passed.

Just seen a video of one of the players surprising their teammate he's going to be a father. Heart-breaking stuff.

Hits closer to home to some of our older fans after Munich.

Here it is.

 

[Malky]

The more videos, pictures and info that is seen the more devastating it is.
Thought's go out to the friends and family of the ones involved, especially the team mates who didn't fly, what a dreadful situation to be in!
Heartbreaking!

RIP.
