Makhehlene Makhaula, 34, suddenly fell to the ground during the first-half stoppage time against Hungry Lions
Orlando Pirates defensive midfielder Makhehleni Makhaula collapsed in the first-half stoppage time in the South Africa Cup last-16 tie against Hungry Lions on Saturday.
As the footage shows, Makhaula suddenly dropped to the ground unchallenged.
"He is communicating, he just had pain on the lower right-hand side of his stomach. It was a major pain there, but he is communicating, he is conscious, and he is getting medical attention," said SuperSport TV's pitch side presenter, Carol Tshabalala.
