The final of the 2016 edition of the Copa Sudamericana was expected to bring joy for the fans. If you want to wager on this competition, you can visit 1xBet - your online betting in Ghana is available for all major international football tournaments.

Brazilian side Chapecoense were going to travel to the Colombian city of Medellín in order to face Atlético Nacional. Sadly, Chapecoense would never arrive at their destination, and what was going to be a festive moment turned into a painful occasion. You can make your online betting in 1xBet Ghana on all matches of these two football teams as well.

Criminal negligence


The Brazilian team rented a plane from Bolivian airline LaMia in order to be transported to Colombia. Unfortunately, it was later revealed that this airline operated below even the most minimum safety standards required by the aeronautical authorities. In addition to football, 1xBet is a WWE wrestling betting site as well, where excellent odds and lots of outcomes can be found.

The plane took-off from Sao Paulo and made a planned stop-over in the Bolivian city of Santa Cruz, where they refueled before heading straight to Medellín. The plane departed for Medellín with their fuel tanks to their maximum capacity. Yet, this capacity was barely enough to reach the Colombian city, which is a huge negligence. The betting site 1xBet is also a WWE wrestling platform, and in all its sports, it can offer its members some incredible rewards.

Nearing the city of Medellín, and with their fuel tanks almost empty, the LaMia plane was put in a holding pattern where they needed to wait for a few minutes. The reason being another aircraft which had a technical problem and was given priority. Sadly, the plane that transported Chapecoense crashed after running out of fuel.

Aftermath


The news of the air disaster shook the world. By the way, you can make any live football bet from 1xBet, where the best teams from South America are also available. Out of the 77 people on board LaMia flight 2933, only six survived, including three players of the team, who were:

  • Alan Ruschel;

  • Jakson Follmann;


The world of football was inundated by sadness and sorrow. Teams and competitions from all over the globe paid their respects to the victims of this horrific act of negligence.

Atlético Nacional, which was Chapecoense’s opponent in the final of the 2016 Copa Sudamericana made a very special request. Specifically, they asked CONMEBOL and FIFA to award the title to the Brazilian squad. When making any football bet from 1xBet, either in live or pre-match form, punters can also wager on this Colombian team. The organizations agreed, and which was a beautiful sportsmanship gesture that earned universal praise.
