Young Chelsea fan 'dies of heart attack after Lampard goal'

Fahad Musana was reportedly watching the match in a video hall in Uganda, and collapsed when Lampard scored late to make it 1-1 in the crucial Premier League clash.His friends rushed him to hospital but he was pronounced dead on arrival.Musana was a professional footballer himself for Simba FC in the Ugandan Premier League, adding to the shock of his loss.The Uganda Football Association (FUFA) confirmed the news in a statement: "Fufa is in shock after receiving news about the sudden death of Simba FC player Musana Fahad in Bombo this evening.""The body is currently at the Bombo Barracks Hospital. Burial arrangements will be communicated later"His friend Gerald Bagoole told the Kawowo news agency just how much Chelsea meant to Musanan: "He has been a passionate fan of Chelsea and would do anything for the club."We trained with him on Sunday morning, had lunch together."His coach at Simba FC, Fred Kajoba, added, "He even trained with us at the Bombo military Baracks stadium in the morning of the fateful incident and completed the session well."The Kawowo agency speculated in its story - headlined "Death by Lampard" - on the cause of death: "Being a staunch Chelsea die-hard, it is believed shock might have led to his heart failure and complications," but adding that Musana had sustained a head knock during his previous match a few days beforehand.Simba FC were due to play a match on Tuesday but that match has now been postponed due Musana's shock death.Lampard, Chelsea's record scorer with 211 goals in his 13 years at Stamford Bridge and still looking out of place in City's light blue shirt after years in Chelsea's royal blue, came on as a late substitute and scored to give the champions a 1-1 draw against the league leaders but did not celebrate the goal that earned his side a point.He left the pitch to a standing ovation from the Chelsea fans as well as applause from the City supporters."It's a really difficult one," he told Sky Sports after the game, adding he was glad the day was over."I'd be unprofessional if I came on and didn't do my job so I'm mixed with it.""The Chelsea fans were singing my name and it was an emotional day. It's not how I expected to say goodbye to the Chelsea fans. I woke up this morning and didn't know what I wanted from today so I'm glad it's out of the way," he said.(uk.eurosport.yahoo.com)Bakudaily.Az
