Sad to hear this...
Feher death stuns football
Monday, 26 January 2004
SL Benfica striker and Hungarian international Miklos Feher died on Sunday
after collapsing on the pitch during his side's Portuguese SuperLiga game
against Vitoria SC in Guimaraes.
Cardiac arrest
The 24-year-old centre-forward had come on as a 59th-minute substitute but
half an hour later suffered a cardiac arrest from which he failed to recover.
Feher was carried from the pitch by his team-mates and both clubs' medical
staff tried in vain to resuscitate him before an ambulance arrived and the
player was rushed to Guimaraes Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at
00.10CET.
'Deep shock'
At a hastily organised press conference, SL Benfica's head of communications
Antonio Cunha Vaz said: "Nobody would like to deliver this news. We are all
in deep shock and would first like to address his family sending our
condolences. All the Benfica board and supporters are mourning our athlete,
Miklos Feher."
'Thoughts with family'
Gilberto Madail, the President of the Portuguese Football Federation, added:
"On behalf of the Portuguese Federation I would like to express my deep regret
for this situation. Life has unfair situations and all we can say is that our
thoughts are with the family and friends of the player."
'Very wrong'
Benfica's Fernando Aguiar scored the game's only goal a minute before a
cheerful Feher was shown the yellow card for wasting time and then suddenly
collapsed. "It's incredible that something like this happens," said match
referee Olegario Benquerenca. "I immediately knew something was very wrong
when he fell on the pitch and all I could do was call the medical crews of
both teams."
International talent
Born in Hungary on 20 July 1979, Feher started his tragically short career
at Gyor ETO and went on to represent FC Porto, SC Salgueiros and SC Braga
before moving to Benfica. He made his first international appearance in
October 1998 against Azerbaijan and went on to score seven goals in 25
international matches. There will be an autopsy to determine the circumstances
of his death on Monday.
