In this early match in the Erdivisie, the match is stopped for a long break as PSV's keeper, Tyton, is carefully removed form the pitch after being struck in the head by his own defender in the first half. Another reminder that futbol is a hazardous sport despite all the discussion of diving and histrionics. The truth is that players put their bodies on the line with no protective gear in a high speed competition with limbs at risk. It's somewhat astonishing that there are not more bodies laid low on the field when the pace and intensity of the game is considered. I suspect everyone in the stadium, of both allegiances, willed Tyton to recover. Footballers and football fans are not generally mean-spirited.
Goalkeeper injury scare. PSV v Ajax.
