Darkon84 Posted 3 August 2011 Posted 3 August 2011 Saw this yesterday and nearly started a thread. The amount of professional footballers suffering with heart conditions and things of that nature is getting worrying. Surely something must be put in place to have more regular check ups etc. All the best to him and hope he comes through alright.
MikeyT Posted 3 August 2011 Posted 3 August 2011 Yep, all the best to him, it's something you really don't expect to happen. Good luck to him. Hope he'll be ok.
HEGGSY Posted 3 August 2011 Posted 3 August 2011 sadly things like this seem to have become more common in modern football, where you dont really expect it due to the amazing advancements in technology in hospitals and at football clubs clive clarke, marc vivian foe and antoni puerta to name but a few. All the best to him though and i wish him a speedy recovery
Wymsey Posted 3 August 2011 Posted 3 August 2011 I wish him all the very best him his recovery. Family must be in total shock.
MC Prussian Posted 4 August 2011 Author Posted 4 August 2011 He's dead. Former Japan international Matsuda dead at 34(2 hrs 9 mins ago) Former Japan defender Naoki Matsuda, pictured, has died in hospital, three days after collapsing during training from a suspected heart attack. He was 34. Matsuda, who won 40 caps for Japan and represented his country at the 2002 World Cup, had been put on an artificial respirator after arriving at hospital unconscious on Tuesday. The president of his JFL (third division) side Matsumoto Yamaga, Hiroshi Otsuki, told Japanese media the club had been informed Matsuda had lost his fight by the player's family. Medical personnel had rushed to Matsuda's aid early on Tuesday after he collapsed with suspected heatstroke. Yamaga later said the player had gone into cardio-respiratory arrest. Matsuda played 40 times for Japan and made 385 appearances for Yokohama F-Marinos, helping them win back-to-back J League titles in 2003 and 2004.
