Beyond football, the evening took a dramatic turn Friday evening in the stands of the Costières stadium, as OM won 3-2 against Nîmes. As reported by Midi Libre, a supporter of the Crocos died in the stands during the meeting, probably from heart trouble.
The emergency services could not revive him
Information confirmed in the local daily newspaper by the Nîmes club. The 38-year-old man is said to have died of heart disease despite the intervention of rescue workers, who tried to resuscitate him on the spot. The causes of the supporters’ death should be clarified after an autopsy.
On the field, the Nîmes Olympique lost despite a more convincing end to the match, beaten by a hat-trick from an ultra-realistic Dario Benedetto, three times a goalscorer … on three attempts.
