CAIRO –7 September 2017: A Tunisian spectator died Tuesday night after the Tunisian national team scored the equalizing goal against the Congolese national team in the 2018 world Cup qualifier, Tunisian reports said on Wednesday

The young Tunisian spectator allegedly died due to a heart attack caused by his extreme happiness and loud shouting in a café in Tunis after the team scored an equalizer against Congo.

The Tunisian national team scored two equalizing goals against Congo in the 77th and 79th minute, which gave them an additional point to qualify to the world cup for the fifth time in history.

It is worth noting that the Congo-Tunis match was played in Congo as a part of the African qualifiers for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.
