Player saves opponent’s life
Print Edition
DNIPROPETROVSK’S Georgian midfielder Jaba Kankava possibly saved Dynamo Kiev midfielder Oleh Husev’s life with his fast reactions after a potentially deadly incident during a Ukrainian top flight match at the weekend.
In the 22nd minute of Sunday’s tie, Husev was knocked down unconscious after a clash with the hosts’ goalkeeper Denis Boiko. Kankava, standing nearest, rendered assistance to Husev by without hesitation removing Gusev’s tongue from blocking his airwaves. The harrowing live pictures showed Kankava desperately trying to save Husev as alarmed players from both teams rushed to give assistance. The medics then arrived to give professional help.
