On January 24, local time in Brazil, from Global Sports News, a small plane crashed in Tocantins, Brazil, killing all six people on board. It was later confirmed that five of them were from the Palmas club, the local league in Tocantins, and the remaining one was a pilot.
The five people killed were the 32-year-old Palmas club chairman Lucas Meira, the 27-year-old goalkeeper Ranule, the 23-year-old left back Lucas Praxedes, the 28-year-old defender Guilherme Noé, and the 23-year-old midfielder Marcus Molinari.
It is reported that the five originally planned to fly to Goiânia to participate in the team's match with Villanova Club. After the tragedy, many Brazilian football clubs such as Villanova, Flamenco and Sao Paulo issued statements to express their condolences.
In recent years, there have been many similar tragedies in the sports world. At the beginning of 2020, basketball superstar Kobe died due to a helicopter failure. A few days later, it will be the anniversary of his death.
In addition, many players from Leicester City owner Vichai and Brazil's Chapecons club also died due to aircraft failure. The disaster of the Brazilian club once again sounded the alarm for us.
hope that major airlines can take safety issues seriously so that such tragedies will never happen again.
