A 22-year-old man from Sheema District in Uganda is accused of killing an Arsenal fan following a disagreement over English Premier League match between Arsenal and Man United on Sunday
According to the police, Jackson Aineruhanga was killed moments after Arsenal’s victory against Man United. The Two football fanatics were engaged in an argument after Manchester United player Alejandro Garnacho’s goal was disqualified for offside.
“It is alleged in the evening after the match, the two fanatics developed a misunderstanding while watching the match.
