Luton’s Premier League match at Bournemouth has been abandoned after their captain Tom Lockyer collapsed on the pitch.
Both sets of players were taken off midway through the second half as Lockyer received medical treatment.
After several minutes, he was taken off on a stretcher, applauded by all four sides of the ground.
Defender Lockyer, 29, collapsed during the play-off final win against Coventry in May before being taken to hospital.
He subsequently had heart surgery and was given the all-clear to return to playing in June.
After confirmation the game was abandoned, both the Luton and Bournemouth players came back out on to the pitch to applaud the supporters.
