While the Brazil vs Chile World Cup penalty shootout, a
69-year old Brazilian fan died of heart failure. The man was watching the tense
encounter, which Brazil won on spotkicks after the sides were locked 1-1 after
extra-time, in a nearby bar when he complained of feeling unwell.
The fan, who was diabetic, died shortly after being taken to
hospital, web news portal G1 and the website of Estado de Minas newspaper
reported.
The paper added local health officials had to treat some 100
people during the game, including a 50-year-old woman for a heart problem
during the penalties and a young man whose nose was fractured in a fight.
