What is the football tragedy with the largest number of deaths? Tell us what else.

1985 On May 29th, at Heather Stadium in Brussels, Liverpool and Juventus met in the final of the European Champions League. UEFA allocated a stand behind the goal to Liverpool fans before the game, but many Juventus fans bought tickets for the stand from Belgium. In the stands, there are not enough police and staff to separate the two teams of fans. In the game, there are constant insults and throwing behaviors of fans from both sides. Football hooligans mixed with Liverpool fans fought with Juventus fans, which led to the collapse of the stands. 39 Juventus fans died on the spot and more than 300 people were injured. This is the famous "Heisel tragedy". Liverpool also lost the Champions League. After the game, all English teams were banned from participating in European competitions for five years and Liverpool were banned for seven years. Since then, the Red Army has been greatly weakened, and it has been unable to regain its peak for many years.

the hillsborough disaster

1On May 7th, 989, the semi-final of the FA Cup was held at Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield, and Liverpool played Nottingham Forest.

The stands 3 and 4 behind the goal are the most popular. They were full 20 minutes before the game, and at the beginning of the game, there were twice as many fans as designed. Because there were no fixed seats, the crowded fans in the stands pushed and bumped, but the fans at the entrance didn't know that the stands were full. They continued to crowd the stadium, pinning the fans in the front row on the fence. At this time, the police at the stadium stood near the center line to prevent Liverpool fans from "attacking" forest fans. Desperate fans desperately pushed down the fence, some people climbed over the fence to escape, and a large number of fans were crushed to death. This tragedy killed 96 people and injured 1000 people. The incompetence of the police and the poor condition of the stadium are the main reasons for this disaster.

After the Hillsborough tragedy, the English Football Association ordered the demolition of all the stands without seats. In memory of these dead fans, Liverpool's team song was changed to "You will never walk alone" so as not to forget the tragedy. Today, the Hillsborough Monument stands at Anfield forever.

In order to save trouble, the stadium management department concentrated all the spectators in the stands in Area C.

However, before the end 1 minute, the game suddenly climaxed again. The home team pursued the victory and scored a goal, and immediately there was a burst of cheers in the stands. Many spectators who had walked off the stands and headed for the exit were attracted by the cheers and immediately turned around and hugged back to see what was going on. At this time, the final whistle sounded and the excited audience in the stands began to leave and hug. Two people meet at the narrow exit, like two surging tides, colliding violently. Because people are crowded, no one can control the flow of people pushing each other. Those who don't know the truth behind only care about squeezing the people in front, and the people in front slowly leave in a crowded situation. In this way, the exit is blocked. As more and more people leave, some people can't control their bodies and can't stand the great pressure and suffocate and faint. Some people who have been pushed down can no longer stand up. Thousands of feet stepped on them, crying, swearing and groaning intertwined, and the scene was unbearable. In the end, more than 340 people suffered.
