Players go through few tests including resting ECG, Stress ECG and echocardiography. But even these test can miss an underlying heart condition.I doubt he would have went throughout all this career with an undiagnosed heart condition. I think it's probably a sudden heart attack and nothing else.
Outrage over TV rules rather than a clear lack of high end medical equipment by the pitch?? Ugh
This is incredible news. The 1st responders and even the ref who acted instantly deserve never ending praise if this turns out positive
But nobody knew the seriousness of the situation at that moment. Anyway, hope he recovers.
Doubt it's related.
It's great to see him conscious! Hope he gets better soon.
My uncle died of a heart attack while jogging at a local park. Nobody knows how long he was there until they found him. He was on life support for a few days but couldn't pull through. For situations like this every second is crucial.
On your first post I agree. They just brought the teams medics on for what felt like a lifetime before brining the docs and equipment on.You think? I thought they were really slow to act. Left him in the recovery position and no one seemed to clock on he wasn't conscious or breathing. Wasn't impressed at all.
They did use a defib and you have to do compressions along side it. It's not one or the other. But they did use one.
The Twitter picture looks like he's with it but I agree it didn't look good at all.
Yeah all defibs are automated. He was definitely shocked a few times so his heart had 100% stopped. It won't shock you otherwise.
They did have one and used it.

Are you at it?Stadium announcer now says he’s been taken to the hospital and match suspended with further updates at 19:45 local time. So 20 mins from now.
What is the relevance then?How would you know that
The ref and the first medics were as quick as possible but the doctors were lightly jogging with the stretcher / breathing equipment which seemed odd.I was tongue in cheek complaining about the stadium just before but yeah I'm surprised how poor and disorganised it all was..
I thought they were slow tbh
I'm blown away most of you are still at the stadium with the game suspended. I guess there's a chance it resumes too...
I'm sorry for the wording, but feck off TVI. You are scum and the only thing that matters is money. Sport TV is a greedy business but at least they showed some freaking compassion.
I'm out of posts for today, so that's it for me today. Looks like he's fine. That's all that truly matters.
Surely they won't play the game...
Can everyone stop saying they didn’t have a defibrillator. This how bullshit rumours start. Even more bizarre considering they (ridiculously) showed it being used.
credit to the ref. I thought he noticed pretty quickly, certainly quicker than the players.
I doubt many people even know what a defibrillator looks like.Can everyone stop saying they didn’t have a defibrillator. This how bullshit rumours start. Even more bizarre considering they (ridiculously) showed it being used.

OH come on that has nothing to do with this, please stop it.This.
Oh and feck UEFA that money grabbing whores pushing through this tournament after a congested season like that
Yeah. Can’t believe people are saying that. I’ve the images of the defib seared into my brain. Shocking image.Can everyone stop saying they didn’t have a defibrillator. This how bullshit rumours start. Even more bizarre considering they (ridiculously) showed it being used.

They weren't slow at all. It took them like 10 seconds to sprint over to him just because he was probably at the furthest point away from the benches.Ref and Schmeichel were great. I thought the medial and physio staff were really slow to be honest. Expected much much better and CPR should have started sooner.
Looking like he could be okay. Really hope so with no other damage. Come on mate.
Are you at it?
Questions still need to be asked. Players were rattled. An extremely congested season for them
Yeah that was the part that seemed odd to me.The ref and the first medics were as quick as possible but the doctors were lightly jogging with the stretcher / breathing equipment which seemed odd.
Kasper was great going over to his wife to comfort her. Anthony Taylor acted really quickly kudos to them and all the medical staff.Ref and Schmeichel were great. I thought the medial and physio staff were really slow to be honest. Expected much much better and CPR should have started sooner.

Its not their coverage , they just take the feed, like every other country does, but no need for them to be showing it, should have just cut straightaway.BBC are getting slated on twitter and rightly so, that was as scummy as it gets. Their coverage has been diabolical so far.
What is the relevance then?

They've said the game was postponed and won't be replayed on RTE so I can't imagine they will.

I actually thought he just had like a fit or something only I suppose semi serious because no one seemed to be rushing.
