      Kinda sucks. If soccer / football would have made heading illegal from the onset of the game, it would have made the game much safer for all the participants.
      Obviously, they didn’t know about the dangers and it’s too late to change now.

      before he collapsed he ran back 20 yards to get back to defence to help his team even though i could guess he was in agonising pain. This guy is the defender we all need, he never gives up, amazing defensive abilities, goalscorer, tall, and super fast. wish him the best and a speedy recovery

      I think the main reason his teammates tried to put him in a recovery position, is because they feared that it was a cardiac arrest and tried to treat him for that. With so many things going on a soccer pitch, the players probably didn't link the clash of heads to the collapse or they didn't see the clash of heads. Thank you for the great video

      Soccer has a serious problem with head injuries. I've watched two players damn near die from head injuries with Araujo and Raul Jimenez, and those are just recent examples at the top level of european game. Long term, football legislators really need to try to figure something out here.

      1:25 that is a very good point , i keep hearing in the media that his fellow players did the right thing flipping him to the side to avoid a worst outcome, but that is not true, they need to learn this even though their intentions were noble .

      I am so proud to be a radiology technologist. The thing with the epidural and subdural hematoma. Wow, I usually get confuse in this but from now onwards there won't be any confusion. Thanks Alot Doc. God bless you ❤️

      I’ve just finished my football first aid training. They say not to move the player UNLESS you saw the injury and are fairly certain there is no neck or spine injury. You mention a few times that there could be a spinal injury – what makes you think this from seeing the clip?
      For me it looks like a head injury, he carries on running.
