Saturday's Premier League game between Bournemouth and Luton Town was abandoned midway through the second half after Tom Lockyer collapsed on the field.
Luton captain Lockyer fell to the ground suddenly near the center circle before medical staff rushed over to provide treatment.
Both sets of players looked very concerned and some were seen praying on the pitch.
After it became clear that there were serious fears for Lockyer's wellbeing, referee Simon Hooper told both sets of players to return to the locker rooms.
The score was tied at 1-1 when the game was suspended in the 65th minute.
Around 12 minutes after the players had left the field, BBC Sport reported that Lockyer was "alert and responsive" in the tunnel at the Vitality Stadium.
Nevertheless, the match was officially called off at 4.49pm local time.
