Lucas Batista Marcelino was standing on the street waiting for a bus to take him and his cousin to the Estadio Mineirao.
According to witnesses, two men on a motorbike and wearing a shirt with the Cruzeiro colours that represent a fans' group shot them.
Batista and his 16-year-old cousin were rushed to the Pronto Socorro Joao XXIII hospital.

Three young people were detained but released today.
