BroadstairsR 2,164 Posted June 12, 2021 I've never seen anything like this before. Did he just collapse? I didn't see the incident .... but looking at his leg movements he seemed to be fitting. If so, thats serious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigManInTheBarclay 75 Posted June 12, 2021 Looked like he had a fit when he went down, was shaking. Praying he's ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NorthCarolinaYellow 197 Posted June 12, 2021 Absolutely horrifying. In real time it look like he fell, hit his head badly, and then went into the fencing response. But then it kept going and then turned him on his side and opened his mouth presumably so he'd not bite down on his tongue. That looked a seizure. Then they started in on CPR manually and with the defibrillator. My guess is he's dead. Heartbreaking and tragic. Wow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daz Sparks 1,154 Posted June 12, 2021 (edited) He simply collapsed whilst running, you could see immediately he was in trouble. Looked absolutely horrendous, my thoughts are with his family. The only positive is the proximity of first responders and the speed he will be getting to hospital. Football counts for nothing right now.

TheGunnShow 5,940 Posted June 12, 2021 It was touching that Fabrice Muamba's tweet got mentioned. He'd know more than most. Let's hope recovery is soon and absolute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Really wishing he pulls through. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,657 Posted June 12, 2021 You have to hope he’ll be ok - Muamba was out for quite a while and equipment at stadia is better than when he had his collapse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
