A CROATIAN supporter has died of a heart attack in Klagenfurt's fan zone ahead of the group B game opposing his country to Germany.

The man, aged about 20, collapsed in the fan mile in the city centre and was resuscitated by a police officer at the scene but later died in hospital, the services said.

Incase you did not see/notice,they Croatian team wore black arm bands in honour of him in the game vs Poland(1-0 win),

The incident happened just before Croatia beat Germany 2-1

Some very sad news,when Croatia is doing very well.

Always sad to see a football fan die, hopefully he died in a good mood, looking forward to the game.

This was announced during the Croatia v. Germany game, it was sad news which puts everything nicely in the perspective methinks.
