Former Arsenal winger Jose Antonio Reyes was driving at more than 135mph (220kmph) when he died in a car crash on Saturday, Spanish police have said. The Guardia Civil's investigation is ongoing and although the car exceeded Spain's speed limit (75mph/120kmph), it is not clear yet if that was the "final cause" of the incident. Reyes' funeral was held in his hometown of Utrera, Seville on Monday. His cousin Jonathan Reyes was also killed in the crash. More than 11,000 fans paid their respects to Jose Antonio Reyes when his coffin was taken to Sevilla's Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan stadium on Sunday. A former Spain international, he was was part of Arsenal's 'Invincibles' side that went through the 2003-04 season unbeaten, winning the Premier League. The accident happened on the A-376, a road linking Utrera with Seville. The Guardia Civil told BBC Sport that former Sevilla captain Reyes, 35, had been driving the vehicle. A spokesman said: "The investigation is still open. Because of that, we cannot still say that the speeding was the only and final cause of the accident. And neither can we still say the exact speed of the car. We know for sure that it was more than 220kmph." The five-time Europa League winner had been playing for Spanish second division side Extremadura this season. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/48513130 4 Likes

Again, RIP legend. Lesson for all of us, speed STILL kills. 220 is damn fast. I was once doing 160 on a very good stretch of express road (I was in a hurry, secondly I was driving a V6 with windows wound up, so I didn't know until I checked my speedometer again) and immediately returned to my former 110-120 Yes I'm in a hurry but the difference between arrival time at 120 and arrival time at 160 may just be 30 minutes or max one hour. I can always make up for one hour lost, but can I make up for lost life? Your guess is as good as mine. 287 Likes 14 Shares |

220kmph ke? This is why bad roads is not all bad. They should dash spain some of nigeria's bad road let's see if they can even travel at 100kmph for 2minutes without encountering pothole that would make you smash brake. 26 Likes 1 Share |

I keep saying that speed is the number one cause of accidents on roads..Princess Diana, Paul Walker and reyes all died on bottle smooth roads because of speed..if you drive at a moderate speed, even if the road is riddled with potholes you will hav3 room to manoeuvre. 21 Likes 1 Share |
