Shocking stuff. |
Cheick Tiote (former Newcastle player) collapsed during a training session and died at 30 just 6 months ago. In 2012, Fabrice Muamba collapsed on the pitch in a FA cup match between Bolton and Tottenaham.Luckily he managed to survive, although he was forced to retire. A Serbian player also died 2 years ago after collapsing in training due to heart failure.
Like I said, it happens way to often considering that the players are exposed to rigorous tests. Maybe conduct these tests more often? I don't know.
