Tragedy at Jordan versus Algeria match

A Jordanian fan has passed away, and eight others were injured due to a crowd surge that occurred in the Roman amphitheater while the audience was watching the national team's match in the World Cup against Algeria. Over 15,000 people participated in viewing the game. The surge resulted in the death of a young man in his twenties, with the remaining injured sustaining moderate injuries, and they were transported to the hospital. The government set up giant screens in the amphitheater, which dates back to the second century AD, for viewers to watch the match, which ended with Jordan losing 2-1 to Algeria.
