Ajax player feeling fine after collapse during match

Ajax Amsterdam defender Daley Blind says he is “feeling fine” after he collapsed during Tuesday’s pre-season friendly against Hertha Berlin when his implanted heart defibrillator momentarily switched off. 

The 30-year-old Netherlands defender dropped to the ground late in the game, which Ajax won 1-0 at the Johan Cruyff Arena, but was then able to walk off the pitch. 

“Many thanks for all the kind messages I received. I can say that I’m okay and feeling fine,” Blind said on Twitter.
