Former Cagliari goalkeeper Davide Capello survived a 30-metre drop during the Genoa bridge collapse, it has been confirmed.
The Ponte Morandi fell around 11:30 local time on Tuesday amid a torrential downpour, with eyewitnesses also claiming lightning hit the bridge. Engineers, however, say lightning is unlikely to have caused the collapse.
Rescuers are still trying to free people caught in the rubble amid fears that other parts of the bridge could come down, which prompted an evacuation of buildings in the area, while early claims suggest around 35 people have already been reported dead.
