The reason for the sudden collapse at Rodrigo Bentancur's pitch on Wednesday night has been confirmed.
The Uruguayan midfielder was substituted in the first half of the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg between Tottenham and Liverpool after a long delay in which the player received treatment on the pitch.
Bentancur fell to the ground with no one around him in the first half, causing widespread concern for his health.
The Uruguayan was subsequently taken to hospital to undergo extensive medical examinations before returning home on Wednesday evening.
However, Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou issued an update, in which the Australian boss revealed that Bentancur had suffered “a concussion”.

'Good news, fortunately. He was in the hospital and they did all the tests, they just checked that everything was fine, and everything was fine, he's back home and he's fine, he feels fine.'
'We'll follow the protocols now and it's a couple of weeks where you just have to make sure everything is okay, but luckily it looks like a concussion but nothing more.
“It is always distressing. You saw especially Pedro (Porro), who was the first to arrive and I knew it was a distressing situation, but I thought the boys handled it well and the medical team handled it well, and fortunately everything was fine.
