Reminded me a bit of that Harald Schumacher challenge on Battiston at the 1982 World Cup.

bloody tragic. Hope the clubs involved are supporting his family at this time.

No, because that would be ridiculous.

It was an awful challenge but if the poor fella hadn't died it wouldn't be spoke about like that.

I think he should be suspended for life then.

Rip what a horrific injury

 

[BluenosePaul]

I remember one of my first gruesome viewings was

Spoiler: Not nice

a soldier having his head stove in

Dont like that kinda stuff tbh.

Saw a video years ago of some guy attacking another guy in car park and one falls down so the other just repeatedly stamps on his head. That sight has never left me. No idea if he survived or how badly brain damaged he was but it was horrific.

RIP.

the keeper knew exactly what he was doing there. it will play on his conscience, but no justice at all for the family. surely the team doctor should have been wiser and took him to the hospital, even if just for precaution.

I always thought keepers get away with murder

In all serious though the way they are allowed to challenge, leading with knees and such, when no one is allowed to touch the big fannies, it's pretty reckless, still I'd question the medical treatment this lad recieved
