Kenyan Chelsea fan dies minutes after Man Utd goal

Tabitha Nyambura, a 21-year old woman described by family members as ‘a staunch Chelsea supporter’, died on the way to hospital after fainting just minutes when Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez scored the first goal in yesterday's Champions League quarter finals clash between the Red Devils and The Blues.

“After Manchester United scored the first goal, she simply said, ‘United will win this match’ and then took three deep breaths before falling down,” her mother told Citizen TV.
“She died on the way as we rushed her to hospital. She was shocked because she never expected Manchester United to win.”

Her father who was not at home at that time told the TV station that Tabitha was a staunch Chelsea supporter and watched all their matches and other matches in the English Premier League.

“I was away but she loved Chelsea and watched all their matches and that of other teams. She also liked to play football occasionally while at home,” the father said.
