I'm sure he wouldn't be sitting up just seconds after having a heart attack.
Do you think he played on?

Not related to ronaldo is he?

Well apparently the player in question, SV Roeselare’s Anthony Van Loo was aware he had a heart condition and had been fitted with an implanted defibrillator.

The device automatically delivers a shock four seconds after the heart arrests. Watch his legs after he collapses which would seem to indicate he received an electric shock - amazing but apparently true

One things for sure is that was NOT a heart attack.
