At least 56 people have been killed in a crush at a football match in Guinea's second-largest city, Nzérékoré, the government says. That death toll is disputed by many in the country, who believe the true number of dead is closer to 100.

At least 56 people were killed and an unknown number of others were injured during a crush of fans at a soccer match Sunday in Guinea, according to government officials in the west African country.

The violence took place after some fans were unhappy with the referee’s decision and stormed the pitch, according to witnesses.
