Manchester United will on Sunday honour the seven Nigerians who lost their lives while watching the Red Devils’ Europa League against Anderlecht.
The Nigerian fans had died when a transformer near the viewing centre where they were watching the match exploded twice. A high tension wire dropped on the structure built with zinc electrocuting them.
In a twitter post on Friday, the club said it would remember the dead fans when they host Swansea City at old Trafford this weekend.
