What Happens If A Footballer Dies While Playing? by lobell: 7:00pm On Nov 23, 2013
I've been thinking about this...
Is the dead player simply substituted and the match continues? or is a match rescheduled?
If the bereaved team decides they can't play on as per grief, do they forfeit? (for instance a world cup match)
If the match continues are the players/officials/spectators/everybody not being disrespectful of the Dead?
Please football fans/enthusiasts/experts/everybody sound off!
