Etuhu’s brother goes unconscious in England

Etuhu’s brother goes unconscious in EnglandDickson Etuhu’s younger brother, Kelvin, was stretched out unconscious while in a FA Cup action for his Championship side Barnsley on Saturday, futaa.com reports.
Though his team finished with a 3-1 victory over MK Dons, Barnsley Coach David Flitcroft admitted he feared another Fabrice Muamba nightmare when Etuhu was knocked out during the match.
The midfielder who was formally courted to play for Nigeria at U-20 level needed seven minutes treatment on the pitch after clashing heads with Dons defender Adam Chicksen.
Both physios rushed on to the pitch to help the stricken player, who was immediately taken to hospital.
Flitcroft told The Sun: “Kelvin wasn’t responding initially and that’s what the physios were worried about.
“It reminded me of Muamba at White Hart Lane last year.
“It is sickening. The game becomes totally unimportant when that happens.”
Speaking further on the sad incidence with Eurosports.com Flitcroft said the injury was a bad one and something he will not forget in a hurry.
“You certainly don’t want to be involved in anything unsavoury and it certainly was,” he said.
