Ex-Celtic and Bristol City midfidler Evander Sno suffered a heart attack tonight while playing for Ajax reserves against Vitesse Arnhem.



In the 63rd minute of the match, with the score at 2-2, the midfielder collapsed on the pitch. He was treated by the club’s medical staff and was revived on the pitch before being taken to hospital, where he is now described as being in a stable condition.

Sno is not the first player to collapse on the pitch in recent years.

In 2003 Cameroon’s Marc-Vivien Foe collapsed and died during a Confederations Cup match, four years later Sevilla’s Antonio Puerta also collapsed and died in the penalty area during his side’s opening league match against Getafe. And in 2009 Espanyol’s Daniel Jarque died of a heart attack during the team’s pre-season tour of Italy.

In 2008 Sunderland defender Clive Clarke collapsed at half time while playing for Leicester City against Nottingham Forest but was revived later in hospital.

Apparently he was unconscious for a really long time and they had to use a defibrillator multiple times to bring him back to life.

I hope he recovers well.

so sad to hear a bout young people in general suffering from heart attacks but it's in a way even sadder when it happens to footballers/athletes of all kind who have to get medical check ups regularly and everything was supposed to be ok since they were doing their job on the pitch or the arena .

hope he recovers and has a full ,healthy life ahead of him even though he will probably never play football again

What causes this in a footballer? Too much running? Heart is overworked?

It could be, I mean they use their bodies more than an average person. I also read somewhere that some people think it has to do with the amount of medicines they have to take to play, while still injured.

It's great to hear he's in a stable condition now. The medical staff did amazingly in this situation.

I hate hearing about how footballers suffer this on the pitch, it really really makes me sad. I'm so glad he's ok though, I hope he stays ok and recovers quickly and gets back to 100% soon.

I just heard it on an online newspaper. He has to stay this night in the hospital. I hope he will recover completely. This is so sad.

I kind of wonder if he had a history of arrhythmia but didn't know it. C. Ron had an irregularity detected/corrected in adolescence, but I have to wonder how many more players are living with subtler abnormalities they don't know about.

Puerta's incident is still fresh in my mind (ack, tears in my eyes already) thus I really am saddened by this news! Hope he stays strong and recovers soon..

He seems to be OK now, from what I read - recovering well.
Poor guy - he shouldn't be playing with heart arythmia, very serious matter! Thanks God it wasn't fatal.
