"I can't really remember much of the game"

"I can't really remember much of the game"

ESPN details the last of too many players who suffered a head injury during a World Cup match, yet were still allowed to continue playing:

“I can’t really remember much of the game,” he told German newspaper Die Welt after seeing his team-mates beat Argentina 1-0. “I don’t know anything at all about the first half. I thought later that I left the game immediately after the tackle. I have no idea how I got to the changing rooms. I don’t know anything else. In my head, the game starts from the second half.”

Kramer’s head injury on the biggest stage revived concerns about the way football deals with concussions. It was the latest in a series of head injuries at the World Cup that raised questions about the sideline medical checks.

This is a situation in dire need of reform.
