Indonesian football has been rocked by the news that Persela Lamongan goalkeeper Choirul Huda has passed away following a mid-game collision.

The 38-year-old collapsed towards the end of the first-half in a meeting with Semen Pedang following a coming together with team-mate Ramon Rodrigues and Pedang attacker Marcel Sacramento.

Having left his line to block the ball, Huda lost consciousness inside his penalty area.

Medical staff rushed to his aid and quickly escorted him from the field on a stretcher and to a local hospital.

Persela coach Aji Santoso confirmed after the game, though, that Huda had sadly lost his life.
