Turikish Super Liga striker Josef Sural died aged 28 after team’s bus crashed

Czech Republic international Josef Sural has died after a minibus carrying players from his club side, Alanyaspor, crashed while returning from an away match. The 28-year-old striker and several of his teammates were traveling in a VIP minibus while returning from an away match. They were some 5 km (3.1 miles) away from Turkey's central Mediterranean city of Alanya when the vehicle crashed, according to a Reuters report. Club Chairman Hasan Cavusoglu said the accident took place because both of the minibus drivers fell asleep on the road. "According to information I received from our police chief, despite there being two drivers on the vehicle, they were both asleep," he was quoted as saying by the Anadolu news agency. Sural and six other footballers were taken to a hospital, but the Czech midfielder could not be saved. The other six passengers were not in critical condition, Cavusoglu added. Sural joined Alanyaspor in Turkey this January, having spent majority of his club career with Czech sides parta Prague, Slovan Liberec, and FC Brno.
