:( Not another one.

He came on as a 60th minute sub for Benfice, and collapsed in the 90th minute, it is believed that it was a heart attack. He was revived by medics at the ground, but later died in hospital.

He was only 24 years old.

I didn't know who he was, but that is both shocking and sad, to be so young too.

I just saw this on the BBC, really sad news :(

My condolences to his family and friends

It just goes to show that more stringent health checks need to be made in football, because I KNOW that there isn't enough done in relation to checking the heart

Yeah my friend, who's from Portugual and a HUGE Benfica fan, IM'ed me before and told me what happened. He was watching the game on TV too. That must be really tough for the Benfica team to lose a player in that way.

That's something that you never really see or even hear of in football, or any sport all that much.

Horrible to die at such a young age though. :(
