His Mother Died Collised By An Excavator, World Cup 2022 Commendator Leaves Broadcast While The Match Is Taking Place
JAKARTA - The commentator at the 2022 World Cup, Nadia Nadim, is sad. She was forced to stop broadcasting after hearing her mother died as a result of being hit by an excavator.
Nadia, who is a Danish national team player, is in Qatar to be a commentator on ITV television stations. At the time of the incident, he was broadcasting a match between Denmark and Tunisia, Tuesday, November 22.
However, the 34-year-old woman suddenly left the studio during the match. He got word that his mother, Hamida, reportedly died on her way home from the gym.
Danish police announced Hamida died after being hit by an excavator, not a truck as they previously said. The 57-year-old was hit from behind while near his home in Uldum City, 120 miles west of Copenhagen, the Danish capital.
The excavator driver did not see Hamida while avoiding a speeding truck on a narrow rural route.
"A truck was driving in the direction of the driver, and it was a bit narrow, which is why the driver finally hit the woman," the police said, as quoted by The Sun.
Nadia was shaken to hear the news. He said the mother was a fighter who had raised him.
"The words can't describe how I feel. I have lost the most important person in my life and it happened as suddenly and unexpectedly. He is only 57 years old," Nadia said on her Instagram account.
"I have lost my house and I know no one will feel the same way. Life is unfair and I don't understand why he is and why this is like this," he continued.
Nadia then added, "The funeral will be carried out soon. Please come and show the love, respect and prayers he deserves."
