Netherlands-Hungary Nations League match interrupted by medical emergency

The Nations League match between Netherlands and Hungary on Saturday was briefly interrupted in the seventh minute following a worrying medical emergency on the Hungarian bench.

Spanish referee Jesus Gil Manzano stopped play for some 10 minutes while the individual received treatment, shielded from view by huddled players and staff members, as well as a large white sheet.

The person was stretchered away from the bench at the Johan Cruyff Arena to applause from spectators and players alike, before the match resumed. (BSS/AFP)
