biffer Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 This is disgraceful. Player clearly knocked unconscious but allowed to return to the pitch. Given the prominence of concern about concussion related injuries, for this to happen in a competitive international match is scandalous. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-47684741 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibelieve!!! Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Thought that when I read it earlier. It’s ridiculous that he was allowed to carry on playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParisInAKilt Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Ridiculous. Something similar happened in La Liga the other week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huddersfield Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 My son plays as a defender in the District League &, shall we say, likes to be in the thick of it. A couple of weeks ago, he was smacked on the back of the head by his own keeper who missed a punched clearance & was out cold for 20-30 seconds apparently. The ref ordered him subbed immediately, much to his disgust, but if it's happening at that level then it shows there's a level of common sense getting into the game that really needs to be demonstrated at the top level.
