Stadium Crush at South African Football Match Kills at Least 2, Injures More

At least two fans attending the football match between Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates at FNB Stadium in Johannesburg on Saturday have died following a crush.

Per BBC.co.uk, public safety official Michael Sun confirmed the two deaths, while state broadcaster SABC reported several more fans have suffered injuries.

The match was allowed to continue, and Kaizer Chiefs won 1-0, according to the report.

The Soweto Derby between two of Johannesburg's biggest clubs always attracts huge crowds, and Sun said all stadium gates were open in an attempt to deal with the extra numbers. 

It's still unclear when the crush took place, with no disturbances visible during the broadcast of the match, per Reuters (via the BBC).
