Lille player lost consciousness after a severe head injury. The match was stopped for half an hour

In the French Ligue 1 match between Reims and Lille, a troubling incident occurred: Lille's Angel Gomes lost consciousness after a severe blow to the head. Medical staff provided first aid, and the match was temporarily halted.

Amadou Koné, who unintentionally struck the Englishman during an aerial duel, apologized to everyone, even after his dismissal from the field.

Gomes was struck in the head by a shoulder and immediately fell to the ground. Rémy Cabella rushed onto the field with an oxygen bag as the ambulance did not arrive quickly enough. The Englishman was then given CPR, and the stadium fell silent due to extreme concern for the Brazilian. Gomes was evacuated by firefighters to the applause of the fans. The match has since resumed.

Lille later reported on their social media that the player regained consciousness and is now in the hospital.
