•It was difficult regaining consciousness, says Nigerian strikerFans have thanked German referee, Marco Fritz, for saving Nigerian forward Taiwo Awoniyi, who suffered concussion in Mainz’s 1-0 loss to Augsburg in the Bundesliga on Sunday, The PUNCH reports.
“Thanks for all the message and well wishes. Felt much better and doing okay. Above all, glory to God,” he wrote. “I would like to praise our medical department at Mainz 05 and Mainz University Medical Center. They looked after me very well. And I thank the dear God who protected me in this situation and made everything possible for me anyway. Unfortunately I will not be able to help my team on the pitch in Dortmund, but I will support them as much as I can.
“So take a look at professionalism… The referee stopped the game and saved Taiwo Awoniyi’s life in the German Bundesliga. Compare that to what happened to Chineme Martins of Nasarawa United FC in the NPFL…sad,” David Doherty tweeted.
