| Bruno Boban |
A CROATIAN footballer collapsed and died after being struck in the chest by the ball at a football match.
Emergency workers spent almost an hour trying to revive Bruno Boban, 25, before he was pronounced dead on the pitch.Bruno was 15 minutes into Marsonia's match against Slavonija Pozega when a player smashed the ball into his chest from close range.
Play continued until Bruno, the Croatian third division's top scorer, suddenly fell to the ground unconscious.
Realising something was horribly wrong, players from both sides rushed to his aid as those on the touchline called an ambulance.
His team-mates and rivals struggled to fight back tears as medics pronounced him dead at the scene.
The cause of death has not yet been announced.
