Udinese-Roma was definitively suspended around the 70th minute with the score 1-1 .

Great fear for the Giallorossi defender Evan N'Dicka: the player collapsed on the pitch midway through the second half and was rescued by doctors who took him out of the pitch on a stretcher.

The defender was conscious, but the match was suspended to check his condition and the Giallorossi coach himself rushed to the locker room to follow his player together with captain Gianluca Mancini. Both returned to the pitch to say that he was fine, but the player was taken to hospital (with a yellow code) and the match was definitively suspended because the players did not feel like continuing .

According to initial reconstructions, N'Dicka had severe chest pain . While he was being carried on a stretcher he gave the ok sign towards the bench. He was conscious. He underwent an electrocardiogram which would have highlighted heart problems , then he was transferred from the Friuli medical room to the hospital for further tests. He did not have a heart attack, as far as we know from health circles.

Udinese-Roma will resume from the moment it was suspended, in the 72nd minute, at 1-1 : the Friulians had taken the lead with Pereyra, the Giallorossi had found the equalizer with Lukaku. The date to be decided will also depend on the eventual qualification of the Capitoline players to the Europa League semi-finals.
