In the Kenyan capital Nairobi, traffic jams occurred due to the crowd trying to enter the stadium, resulting in the deaths of seven people.

According to reports, six people died on the spot, one in the hospital. All of them were trying to attend the match between the two most popular teams in the country - "Gor Mahia" and "AFC Leopards".

Interestingly, the match took place despite the tragedy, and there were still many empty seats in the stadium before the crowd gathered.
