Former West Ham goalkeeper faints while commentating on Madrid vs Milan
Jakarta, Beritasatu.com – Former West Ham United goalkeeper, Shaka Hislop, fainted while commentating on Real Madrid’s trial match against AC Milan at the Rose Bowl Stadium, Pasadena, United States of America, Sunday (23/7/2023) local time.
This happened a few minutes before the friendly match Real Madrid vs AC Milan started. Shaka Hislop lost consciousness during the pre-match segment. During the incident, the ESPN football commentator was performing a routine segment with fellow commentator Dan Thomas before staggering and then falling.
The camera stays on, as Thomas seeks help from medical services. “Shak! (referring to Hislop) Shak! Help!,” shouted Dan Thomas asking for help for his colleague. Seconds later, fellow media employees and stadium security enter the frame, before the camera focuses elsewhere.
It is not known exactly what happened to Shaka Hislop. However, the high temperatures, humidity and poor air quality at the Rose Bowl Stadium are conditions that allow this to happen. Especially in high tension situations such as doing live TV broadcasts during the pre-season tournament titled Soccer Champions Tour.
As for Hislop’s status, analyst Dan Thomas shared the good news on his social media account, assuring that his co-host is “conscious and medics are treating him”.
The ESPN analyst said he had spoken to the Hislop family to reassure them that everything was under control.
He also said the former Trinidad and Tobago international felt “embarrassed” and was someone who “didn’t like to make noise”. Thomas said it was too early to say what happened, but his co-workers and friends were fine and were talking about what happened with medics.
Hislop joined ESPN in 2008 after retiring as a player. Most of his career he spent in England defending Reading, Newcastle United, West Ham United and Portsmouth. He defended West Ham in two terms namely in 1998-2002 and 2005-2006. He retired after defending the United States club FC Dallas.
Even though he was born in England, Shaka Hislop chose to defend Trinidad and Tobago. He appeared 26 times to defend the country which is located in the Caribbean.
