According to
reports, the 38-year old Indonesia goalkeeper collapsed towards the end of the
opening 45 minutes after colliding with his team-mate "Ramon
Rodrigues" and
Pedang forward Marcel Sacramento.
Huda is said
to have left his line to clear the ball in Sunday’s game and was stretchered
off the pitch and taken to hospital following the three-man clash.
The Persela
Lamongan shot-stopper who has nearly played 500 games for the club after making
his debut in 1999, was declared dead at 5.15pm, surrounded by the Persela squad
who were with him at the Regional General Hospital in Lamongan.
In a
statement released on the website of his club – Persela FC – Dr Yudistiro Andri
Nugroho said Huda suffered “impacts on the chest and lower jaw”.
Dr. Nugroho,
from Dr. Soegiri Lamongan hospital in Lamongan, East Java, said the collision
resulted in Huda “stopping breathing and [caused a] cardiac arrest”.
He said a
medical team attempted to revive him but after an hour there were “no reflexes
of signs of normal life”.
