Iranian goalkeeper in hospital.

Recommended Posts

Howabout that Saudi player who took a knee from his own keeper?  I couldn't believe he was moving afterwards and he was left on the pitch as play continued for far too long (imo).

I thought he did well to get that goal kick out under the circumstances. How on Earth did they allow him to play on? I thought head injuries were supposed to be taken more seriously these days?

The link you've provided doesn't say anything at all about him being in hospital.

It is absurd. What I read seemed to suggest the call comes down to the team doctors, rather than an independent medical professional, which just won't work- they don't seem capable of standing up to the players and making the decision for them.
