Within 10 or 20 seconds it became apparent that something very serious had happened, and we soon found out that he had stopped breathing. He was treated on the field for almost 10 minutes, with a defibrilator used in an attempt to resuscitate him, before being taken off on a stretcher. Howard Webb took the players off the field, and the game was officially abandoned a few moments later. The last we heard was that Muamba was on his way to hospital, that he was not breathing and that he was still receiving CPR. That was 35 minutes ago. 7.01pm Apparently Owen Coyle and Kevin Davies were in the ambulance with Muamba. 6.56pm Bolton have released a short formal statement to confirm the horrific events of the past hour. Bolton Wanderers can confirm that Fabrice Muamba has been taken to hospital following his collapse at White Hart Lane this evening during the FA Cup quarter-final. There is no further information at this stage. 6.44pm The ESPN reporter in the tunnel says that Bolton are preparing a statement to confirm that Muamba is on his way to hospital. There is no further information, and we still don't know whether attempts to resusciate Muamba have been successful. 6.33pm ESPN say that Muamba is still receiving CPR on the way to hospital. 6.30pm The game has officially been abandoned, and Fabrice Muamba is reportedly on his way to hospital. We don't yet know whether attempts to resuscitate him have been successful. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2012/mar/17/fa-cup-tottenham-bolton-mbm ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1922: To recap on the situation, Bolton midfielder Fabrice Muamba collapsed on the pitch five minutes before half-time of Tottenham's FA Cup tie with Wanderers at White Hart Lane and received treatment on the pitch for 10 minutes while medical staff attempted to resuscitate him, using CPR and a defibrilator. The 23-year-old was not breathing when he was carried off, and the last news of his condition, which came at 1833 GMT, was that attempts to resuscitate him continued while he was taken to hospital. Bolton manager Owen Coyle and club captain Kevin Davies accompanied Muamba in the ambulance. 1911: BBC Radio 5 live's senior football reporter Ian Dennis at White Hart Lane, and talking about Fabrice Muamba's condition: "I've been speaking to members of the Bolton backroom staff, who say he is one of the fittest players at the club. You could see medical staff using a defibrillator and he was electronically charged on to least two occasions. Everybody could see Fabrice Muamba was fighting for his life on the pitch." 1849: The latest news on Fabrice Muamba is that medical staff were still trying to resuscitate him on his way to hospital. ESPN have reported that Bolton boss Owen Coyle and club captain Kevin Davies are set to join him there. 1838: More from ESPN's reporter in the White Hart Lane tunnel. Referee Howard Webb has spoken to all of the players and officials and none of them were in a fit state to continue while they wait for news on Fabrice Muamba. The Bolton midfielder collapsed on the pitch five minutes before half-time and received lengthy treatment while medical staff attempted to resuscitate him. Muamba has now been taken to hospital. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17356697 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LONDON -- Bolton midfielder Fabrice Muamba collapsed during a match at Tottenham on Saturday and medics appeared to be try to resuscitate him before the match was abandoned. The 23-year-old fell to the ground in the 41st minute with no players around him. The FA Cup game was immediately stopped. Medics rushed onto the field with a defibrillator and treated Muamba, pumping his chest for around six minutes of treatment. Some players appeared to be praying as fans chanted his name between periods of silence at White Hart Lane. After Muamba was carried off on a stretcher with his chest still being pumped, all the players also left the field before referee Howard Webb abandoned the quarterfinal. Muamba was taken to a hospital. He was born in what was then called Zaire on April 6, 1988. His father left the country because of political turmoil and settled in England, and Fabrice joined Arsenal's youth academy in 2002. He made his debut at age 17 on Oct. 25, 2005, in the League Cup at Sunderland, and was loaned to Birmingham in the League Championship the following season. The loan was made permanent in May 2007, and he made his Premier League debut for Birmingham in 2007-08. He joined Bolton in June 2008. Muamba has been part of England's youth system and was a member of its team at last year's European Under-21 Championship, where he entered as a substitute against Ukraine and started against the Czech Republic. http://espn.go.com/sports/soccer/story/_/id/7701929/bolton-fabrice-muamba-collapses-carried-fa-cup-game-stopped ... | ||

No, to many news following it, would be leaked on the internet before they had chance to release a statement. Mark Vivene Foe was within 1hour of him collapsing | ||
