In the video, which has now been widely shared, Tiaguinho, 22, reads the note inside a bag and quickly jumps up and dances along with his teammates and shouts with joy.

The striker was on the chartered aircraft carrying Chapecoense Real, a first division team that departed from Bolivia and crashed in Cerro Gordo at about 10 p.m. Monday.

The British Aerospace 146 short-haul plane reportedly declared an emergency and lost radar contact due to an electrical failure, aviation authorities said.
