Over 75 footballers have died on the pitch in last 123 years, not as rare as you may think as most due to heart failure, FIFA were talking about introducing cardiac testing in 2007 after 2 footballers died of heart failure in two days in 2007 as I recall, not sure if they did.

|
|
By:
ok , said it was previous players

Very sad news and hope like all, the guy pulls through. Just wonder how much strain these guys put on their hearts in the intense training they go through.

this can happen to anyone at any time
for this reason, always live life to the fullest. you could literally drop dead any second |
|
By:
That is true......at times I wonder if it's a race amongst journalists/reporters on Twitter and these sites to break the news first.
In this situation, it is best to have one official source of info such as Sky Sports / BBC who can be held accountable for what they say rather than people posting the tail-end of a rumour on their social network. These people should have more sense on sensitive issues like this one. |
