Today’s Serie A clash between Fiorentina and Inter Milan was interrupted by a shock medical emergency to midfielder Edoardo Bove.
The 22-year-old collapsed on the pitch just after the fifteen-minute mark.
Both sets of players were visibly distraught after the incident.
Bove was taken to hospital to receive treatment. Reports indicate that he has regained consciousness.
As a result the match was postponed. The mood at the Stadio Artemio Franchi was solemn, but the news about Bove’s condition has been encouraging.
Inter striker Marcus Thuram gave a message of support to Bove on his Instagram account. He wrote, “Forza Edoardo. We’re all with you.”
