“The team visited Nicka in the hospital. Evan is feeling better and is in a good mood. He will remain under observation for tests at the hospital. Go Evan!” This was Roma’s post in the afternoon after the game against Udinese was postponed due to an illness suffered by Evan Nicka on the pitch.
Nicka was transported to the Santa Maria della Misericordia Hospital in Udine, where he arrived under a yellow code. The alarm for the 24-year-old’s condition returned soon after.
What happened on the street
The Ivorian player suddenly collapsed on the pitch and the game was stopped in the 72nd minute. The player, who suffered chest pain, was nevertheless conscious, left to stretch, and on the way to the changing rooms he raised his thumb in a confident gesture.
Roma coach Daniele De Rossi accompanied him to the dressing room to find out his true condition. After a series of discussions on the pitch, the match was definitively postponed. The Roma players expressed their intention not to continue with the game and found the full understanding of Udinese and the referee Pairetto. At the time of the stoppage, the result was 1-1 due to Juventus leading Pereyra in the 23rd minute and the Giallorossi equalizing with Lukaku in the 64th minute.
