Hundreds of fans trapped in sweltering conditions when train breaks down on way to watch Man City’s defeat to Bayern Munich
Around 500 football fans endured a horrific journey after a train broke down in sweltering conditions heading to the Bayern Munich – Manchester City clash on Wednesday.
One fan was hospitalised and several others were treated for heatstroke as they travelled to Munich to watch boss Pep Guardiola return to the Allianz Arena for the first time since taking over as City boss.
Fans tried their best to wedge open carriage doors
Doors were finally released but one supporter had to be hospitalised
As temperatures rose to an unbearable 50 degrees inside the carriages, air-conditioning failed causing hundreds of fans to panic and try any means necessary to force themselves free.
Video footage shows fans forcing the doors open before scrambling out and walking to the nearest train station where they were given water and treatment for the effects of the blistering heat.
To rub salt in the wounds, it meant the train lines were blocked causing hundreds of furious fans to miss the entire duration of the match.
