During El Clasico at Bernabeu, a fan died: what happened.
Tragic event at the 'Santiago Bernabeu' stadium
According to inkorr.com: Last week during the 'El Clasico' match at the 'Santiago Bernabeu' stadium, a terrible tragedy occurred – 50-year-old Israeli fan of 'Real Madrid', Yigal Brodkin, died due to cardiac arrest. He collapsed during the game between 'Real' and 'Barcelona' and, despite medical assistance, died in the hospital.
The players did not notice the fan's problems, and the match continued. Witnesses called for help, and the 'Real' goalkeeper tried to attract the referee's attention. Doctors made every effort, but unfortunately, they could not save Brodkin's life.
Deep loss for the football community
The son of the deceased reported that his father was a true fan of 'Real', passing his passion for the club to the whole family. The fan club 'Peña Madridista Israel' expressed condolences and described Brodkin as a passionate supporter who will be remembered by many. The loss of this fan has created a void that is hard to fill.
This tragic incident reminds us how important moments in supporting our favorite teams can be overshadowed by unfortunate events. The football community honors the memory of those who give their lives in support of their beloved game and stands in support of the family of the deceased during this difficult time.
