1º de Agosto vs TP Mazembe post-match incident

Five people were reportedly killed after the 45,000 capacity crowd match on Saturday 15 September 2018, including two children who were trampled and/or suffocated to death while exiting the stadium. Before the match began, supporters called a radio station urging the organization to open all gates after the match ended for fear of a tragedy and after going through similar ordeals in the past. The Angolan Ministry of Youth and Sports said it regretted the incident, expressed condolences to the relatives and vowed to launch an investigation. The club's management promised to assist the relatives in funeral expenses.
