Rick Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 The longer it went, the more I thought I was going to see a man die on the pitch. BBC are going to have a lot of complaints over that broadcast. Showing the wife was the final straw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskey Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Hope this a wake up call to how many games are being slammed together back to back. It's all fun and games until someone fucking dies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montybhopa Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Tbh if I was one of the players, either I would have collapsed myself or would have left the field so hats off to the players for standing there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, International tournaments should not be facing the brunt, how about cancelling the likes of League cups but I don't think Italy got that either.

Perhaps, not the time to decide which tournaments should go but there needs to be a change soon. It's just too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montybhopa Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 I don't think it was a cardiac arrest, you don't recover from it that quickly, it was either heat stroke or sth like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 First and foremost, I'm glad that he appears to be alive and well. I can't really add more than what everybody else has already said regarding the BBC coverage and I'm certainly not experienced enough in the medical field to make assumptions on the cause of his collapse. What I can say however is that his team mates, the medical team and the match officials deserve a heap of credit to how they reacted to the situation. From Kjaer and his other team mate ensuring he wasn't going to swallow his tongue, to how quickly the medical team reacted, and to how his team mates shielded him from that penis of a cameraman and consoled his wife. Everybody on that pitch played a role in ensuring that this hasn't become one of the most horrific football matches of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azeem Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Don't expect for the fixture schedule to change. The game might need permanent rule changes in substitutions and stuff for this shit to not happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you talking about 60 ish minutes before a match, which is much different than an overnight response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These lads have pretty much the best healthcare systems in the world behind them, receive private medicals, treatment, physios, check ups etc. It’s something that just hasn’t been picked up I’d imagine.

Whilst I agree it’s a massive shock, they’re not going to give a shit about a team mate from an entirely different country. He won’t even be considered.
