The Dutch elite, the Eredivisie, avoided the worst this Sunday during the championship match between Alkmaar and Nijmegen.

Seized with discomfort and convulsions at the end of the match, NEC striker Bas Dost collapsed on the pitch, resuscitated after ten minutes of anguish then evacuated conscious to the nearest hospital.

In the evening, the former Wolfsburg and Sporting scorer was able to give his news, admittedly hospitalized but out of danger.
