Brazil's Chapecoense Footy team in plane crash.

...Chapecoense are currently 9th in the Brazilian top flight and were travelling for the first leg of a cup final (South American equivalent of Europa League). 5 people have been rescued but '25 bodies have been recovered'. Rescue attempts have been suspended due to conditions at the crash site.

Not looking good at all.
 

...Colombian police are saying 5 survivors and everybody else has been killed. Very sad, appears a number of young footballers have perished along with other passengers.

Sadly, it looks like only 6 survived.

Awful, just awful.
 
Haunting picture doing the rounds on social media of 3 of the players that didn't travel, sitting in an empty dressing room knowing they'll never see their teammates again. An absolute tragedy that has ripped a football club to shreds, destroyed families and devastated a continent
 

The video on sky of the team celebrating in the changies is so sad now.
I'm sure the players injured / suspended and didn't travel won't get over it either.
