The ambulance would have taken around 15 minutes to reach the stadium, further decreasing the chances of survival for the young footballer.
The world of football has been shaken by an absurd tragedy, another young life cut short. A soccer player he died during a match after a violent collision against a wall located a few meters from the playing field. A truly incredible case, the result of great bad luck and a fatality that probably could have been avoided.
The drama took place last Sunday in the province of Corrientes, Argentina, during a match in the Liga de Bella Vista between Citrex and Pedro Ferré. The second half had just begun when, in the 10th minute, Angel Elias Ojeda, 23 year old from Pedro Ferré, was unable to stop his run in an attempt to recover the ball. When he tried to stop, a dramatic fate came to end his life.
The young footballer slammed into a player with extreme violence perimeter wall of the playing field. The gravity of the situation was immediately evident from the first moments after the bad blow. The referee of the match, Gabriel Beltran, said that the player began to have convulsions immediately after the impact.
Scenes from despair they broke out on the pitch and in the stands, with the players of the two teams and the spectators decidedly shocked by what was happening. The medical staff present provided immediate aid to the boy, trying with every means to save him.
Unfortunately, despite his efforts, Ojeda died shortly after being transported to the Bella Vista hospital. “Only sadness and pain in our hearts, forever Angel,” says Club Social y Deportivo Pedro Ferré de Bella Vista in an official statement after the death of its player. On social networks, in addition to disbelief at the tragic disappearance, anger has spread. The criticisms refer to the presence of a wall so close to the pitch, a too great danger for anyone on that field. The wall, evidently too close to the pitch, thus put an end to the life of the young footballer while he was doing what he loved.
A sports journalist present at the match also revealed that theambulance took about 15 minutes to reach the stadium. This represented a further element that aggravated the situation. Playfield safety, as evidenced by several other on-field deaths, must be a priority, (at least) at every level of professional play.
