I think last nights first half would have raised the blood pressure, heart rate and numerous other health stress factors of many people myself included. I checked my Sports watch at half time and my heart rate had averaged about 110bpm when my normal resting heart rate is about 50-60bpm. Stressful stuff this football supporting malarkey! The other good thing about it happening at the football is the likelihood someone will be able to donCPR and the availability of paramedics and Defib. I saw a stat last year that only 1 in 10 people survive a cardiac arrest. And well done to that young lady Heidi and glad to hear the lad is ok.
I've often thought some basic training should be compulsory at schools etc, i've left it as a long link so as folks can see what it is and may want to try it.https://www.bhf.org.uk/how-you-can-help/how-to-save-a-life/how-to-do-cpr/learn-cpr-in-15-minutes

Somebody on Twitter said there was a second similar incident in the North, did anybody hear anything about that?I was in the upper North last night and there were some stewards, paramedics and police around in the 2nd half but I couldn't see what was going on.

Is it just me or do there seem to be loads more incidents like this at football matches than when I was a kid?
