being stabbed by an enraged Arsenal fan.  <\/p>\n<p>The two soccer fans had strolled into Marete\u2019s bar in Meru town, to watch the highly publicised match between the two teams, taunted as favourite league contenders of the season.  <\/p>\n<p>Tension was high as the match kicked off, with Manchester United and Chelsea fans ganging up behind Liverpool against Arsenal.  <\/p>\n<p>Trouble is said to have started after it became apparent that the Arsenal side was playing a losing game. <\/p>\n<p>The Arsenal fan is said to have been angered by the Liverpool fan, who was celebrating at every goof the Arsenal side suffered.  <\/p>\n<p>The tension reached its peak as the referee blew the final whistle, by which time, Arsenal had already been hammered five goals by their hosts.  <\/p>\n<p>Unable to contain his anger, the Arsenal fan is said to have stabbed the Liverpool supporter, leaving him for the dead outside the bar.  <\/p>\n<p>Area police boss Tom Odero, said the assailant is still at large, adding that a manhunt has been launched to bring him to book.  <\/p>\n<p>Mr Odero said locals had impounded a motorbike that the assailant was seen riding before the match, and taken it to Meru police station.  <\/p>\n<p>This is the second time this season that soccer fan has lost his life as a result of disappointing soccer results. <\/p>\n<figure
