I can't believe they continued filming while they carried him out, and from front side. They should be sued.

What in the world is wrong with these TV producers. And the BBC for not cutting away themselves.
I couldn't believe what I was seeing; there must be plans in place for if something like this happens, leg-breaks and such are handled much more sensitively than this was.

This has happened before with a City player in the world cup and I think that tournament continued.
It was Marc Vivan Foe and the Confederations Cup in 2003. They were made to play the final 72 hours later.

They had oxygen or a breathing pump on him leaving the field. That is encouraging.

Positive that they were able to stop resuscitation and move him. The players seemed relatively calm so Please God the have stabilised him.

Never complained about a broadcast before but will be for this. Disgusted that they kept filming and showed his family member heartbroken at the side of the pitch. I'm disgusted.

Wow. Those pictures of him recieving CPR were some of the worst you'll see. Harrowing stuff.

Just got to hope and pray he will pull through.

It took too long. I hope he will make it. Disturbing scenes.

Dont mean to paint a grim picture, all of that stuff is needed. Does not mean much in terms of how he is doing.

Only thing is his heart comes back.

Thankfully I didn't see as was watching tennis. Just saw the end bit where they had the covers up.

The most important thing is for him to be ok. So bloody sad

Whatever happened, I hope he is okay. Really distressing to see.

I also turned it off right after they started the cpr, it was unbearable to watch. But this discretion should not be left to the viewer. The broadcast should have been cut from the studio on the stadium. Especially when you know that children are watching.

Game has rightfully so been postponed.

Football means f*** all when it comes to someone’s life. So hope he pulls through.
