That would have to suck all around.

That's what those soccer players get for faking so many injuries.

 

[guyver01]

they take their soccer seriously.

how DARE he die in the middle of a match.

shoulda been red-carded.

 

[Scouzer]

lol well i doubt the guy who died was really worried about the yellow card at that point

 

[her209]

So did his team go on to win?

Its a case of the boy who cried wolf.

 

[Azraele]

Ouch, bad call by the ref.

 

[dmcowen674]

He got his card alright, just happens to be the last one.

Went out doing what he liked anyway.

damn they should take care of people immediately and lay HEAVY penalties on fakers. Only way to help the needy and punish the basterds

Agreed with the heavy punishment.

They should also properly enforce the rule that only captains should be allowed to approach the ref too, which they don't!

LOL at the fourth comment "The guy simply did what I usually feel like doing every
time I'm exposed to a soccer game - keel over from boredom".

He liked having a heart attack?

 

[Krazy4Real]

Man, that sucks.

 

[Dominato3r]

Basketball and Soccer, to many pussies.

But yea, this sucks. The guy probably would've lived if they got to him fast enough.

Looks like the article got taken down.

[0roo0roo]

egads, did he live on bacon grease or somethin?

 

[ViviTheMage]

Pretty intense!

 

[SphinxnihpS]

This type of injustice must end. Soccer needs replay!

 

[D1gger]

The referee was obviously in error ... this should have been a red card.

 

[Blackjack200]

I'm thinking it's more likely he was on some kind of stimulant. Professional athletes shouldn't just have heart attacks on the field.

Or it could be like that Russian hockey player that the Rangers drafted that died a few years ago, he had a heart condition and was not supposed to be playing...

Interesting, you listed two high contact sports with very little protective gear.
