GUINEA — In Africa, they take their football seriously. Government officials are investigating after 56 people were killed during a soccer stadium stampede. The sanguinary ordeal transpired on December 1, 2024 in Guinea at a local tournament honoring Mamady Doumbouya — the country’s military leader. It was also captured on video. According to reports, all hell broke loose when a referee made a questionable call. Fans threw stones and police countered with tear gas — sparking a massive melee. Many spectators — including small children — were trampled, while others tried to escape by leaping a high fence. “The stone throwing started and the police joined in, firing tear gas,” eyewitness Amara Conde told reporters. “In the rush and scramble that followed, I saw people fall to the ground, girls and children trampled underfoot. It was horrible.”
Guinea’s Prime Minister Amadou Oury Bah disseminated his exasperation via social media. “The government deplores the incidents that marred the football match between the Labe and Nzerekore teams this afternoon in Nzerekore,” he tweeted. “During the stampede, victims were recorded. The regional authorities are working to restore calm and serenity among the population.”
Should soccer be banned in Guinea?
Should referees be held accountable for making bad calls?
Watch the stampede.

Who brings stones to throw at a football match?
Let’s be honest here, sporting events like these encourage violence from the fans. Sports are like a battle, and the people who support their soldiers battling for them, end up becoming soldiers themselves.
Seriously, over a stupid ass sport. These people very immature
Out of all sports fans, football fans are the craziest.
Animal behavior

I find it ridiculous when black people blame all their problems on colonialism. What did the white man have to do with this. I say this as an Indian and not a white man
