The local championship match was stopped and postponed due to a seizure in one of the players.
An unpleasant episode took place in a championship in Argentina. As part of the 11th round, Estudiantes and Boca Juniors met. However, the players did not finish the game before the final whistle.
The fact is that in the 27th minute of the match, the host’s midfielder Javier Altamirano fell on the grass and suffered a convulsion.
This is the second time in 2 days.

Altamirano was sent to the hospital, where he had another seizure on the way to the ambulance. The footballer is now under medical supervision and has regained consciousness.
Because of this, the judges decided to stop the match between Estudiantes and Boca Juniors. The country’s football authorities will decide the fate of the match later.
Note that this season Javier Altamirano played 11 matches and scored 1 goal in the championship.
We remind you that earlier in Turkey, Fenerbahce players clashed with Trabzonspor fans.
