    Fire at Rio's Flamengo training center kills ten teenage footballers

    After years of financial difficulties, Flamengo last year spent some US$ 6.2 million to expand the Ninho do Urubu facilities

    A fire at the training centre of Rio de Janeiro soccer club Flamengo killed 10 people and injured at least three others on Friday, firefighters said. The fire broke out at Ninho do Urubu, a state-of-the-art training centre that was expanded and opened only two months ago. The facility has accommodation for teenage players.
