Colombia Chapecoense air crash: What we know - BBC News

Tragic.

Absolute tragic and some survived.

There is a picture of 3 players in the dressing room looking shocked after hearing the news, they didn't travel with the rest of the team because they were injured or suspended

A true tragedy...YNWA Chapecoense

Nice to hear what the brazillian FA are doing for them, they have told them that the team can't be relegated for at least 5 years and all the other top clubs are going to give them players to keep them going.

Stupid question but would a football club have any kind of insurance against this sort of thing, imagine if it happened to man utd or real Madrid, it would mean that they have lost billions of pounds worth of investment in one go.

Yes the clubs insure their players for this type of loss. The players are their main assets.

Yh they will do..

This exact thing did happen to Man utd before

Yeah I know, they are known as the Busby Babes, but I've never really heard about the financial effect it had on them
