Afghan Football Stadium

Taliban authorities publicly executed two men convicted of murder in a football stadium in eastern Afghanistan on Thursday, according to an AFP journalist at the scene.

At least 11 women were killed Wednesday in a stampede at an Afghan football stadium where thousands of people had gathered to apply for Pakistani visas, authorities said.

The match at the Afghanistan Football Federation (AFF) stadium in Kabul has sparked major interest in the war-torn country, with a sell-out crowd expected at the afternoon game.

Over 30,000 people jammed a football match in Kabul stadium between a select afghan 11 and the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF).

Preparations are underway for a historic football match between a team of international troops and an Afghan XI at the Kabul Stadium on Friday.
