Fabrice Muamba collapsed after suffering a cardiac arrest during the FA Cup tie at Spurs. Our thoughts and prayers are with Fabrice and his family. When something like this happens the world seems to stop. The game that unites the world, unites us all to support one man. Around the world fans and players showed their support.
Andrea Pirlo dedicated Juventus' 5-0 win over Fiorentina to Fabrice: "We wanted to dedicate our goals to Bolton's player Fabrice Muamba, who is fighting for his life."
"Spurs vs Bolton means nothing! FA Cup means nothing! Football means nothing! Right now Fabrice Muamba is everything!" - @Carroll9Fans
The London Chest Hospital: “As is normal medical practice, Fabrice remains anaesthetised in intensive care and will be for at least 24 hours. His condition continues to be closely monitored by the cardiac specialists at the hospital.”
Tottenham Chairman, Daniel Levy: "We are immensely proud and grateful to the medical teams at both clubs, their response was immediate and professional. Our thanks also to both sets of fans for their support and behaviour. Too often we read the negatives about football and yet last night, at a time of intense emergency and uncertainty, we saw the true humanity and empathy of the footballing family."
