littleyellowbirdie 2,550 Posted November 23, 2022 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? https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/nov/21/iran-goalkeeper-head-clash-headway-world-cup Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Google Bot 3,278 Posted November 23, 2022 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). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
