I just remembered Marc-Vivien Foe who died while playing for Cameroon in a game and was led to his Wikipedia page.

On there is a complete list of players that have died while playing and one of them really shocked me tbh.

1908
Frank Levick
Sheffield United

''Death caused by blocking a shot. The ball struck him below the waist, forcing his testicles to become lodged in his stomach. This caused internal bleeding of the bowel and a subsequent cardiac arrest.''

i know this is a pretty pointless thread but just thought id share it :crazy:

funny you say that because the number of players who have died from heart attacks and heart failure take up about 80% of all of them.

Here is the list if anyone fancies a read...

I've read through the list a few times and watched the related videos, horrendous stuff. Think it's so shocking as having played football myself it's a bit too close to home.
