The Premier League match between Luton Town and Bournemouth was suspended in the 65th minute with the scoreline 1-1 after Luton skipper Tom Lockyer collapsed on the pitch at the Vitality Stadium on Saturday.
The incident occurred in the 59th minute when Lockyer collapsed near the centre circle.
The 29-year-old Welsh player had also collapsed in the 11th minute of the Championship play-off final against Coventry at Wembley Stadium in May this year before being taken to the hospital.
Luton had taken the lead through a goal from Elijah Adebayo in the third minute. However, Dominic Solanke scored the equaliser for the home side in the 58th minute.
“The fixture between AFC Bournemouth and Luton Town has been suspended. All our thoughts are with Tom Lockyer at this time,” Luton confirmed with a post on X.
“We don’t know the full extent of what happened and what the next steps are at this stage, but we thank Bournemouth and the medical staff on both sides for their immediate response, which was absolutely amazing,” said Luton in a separate social media post.
