LOSC Lille and Stade Rennes hosted the opening game of the French League 1 in the 2024-2024 season at Stade August Delon in Rennes, France on the 18th (Korea time).
In the 11th minute of the first half, when the match between the two teams was tight, an unfortunate situation occurred. When Angel Gomes jumped up for the aerial ball contest, Amadou Kone competed strongly from behind. Gomes, who had already risen in the air because Kone rushed from behind, was not prepared at all for the collision.
After the two players collided, Gomes had already lost his center of gravity in the air and fell sharply. Shocked toward his head, Gomes collapsed as it was. As soon as he collapsed, Gomes immediately became stiff and rigid. The players next to him immediately called the medical staff, and the referee also instructed the medical staff to come in quickly.
Gomes' condition was also very serious to the medical staff who completed the initial diagnosis. Additional personnel have been added. It took as many as 34 minutes for the medical staff and officials at the stadium to take emergency measures and transport Gomes on a stretcher. Until Gomes was carried out, Lil' teammates stayed by his side, and all the spectators cheered for Gomes not to have a big problem.

Fortunately, Gomes regained consciousness as he moved to the hospital. Lille said on its official account that 'Gomes regained consciousness and was taken to hospital'
Reims coach Luca Elsner said after the game, `The first word should be for Gomes. I hope there's no problem. I was a little relieved to hear the news. We were scared at that moment." Despite being an opponent, he worried about Gomes first.

Gomes grew up at Manchester United from an early age and was a highly anticipated prospect. He even made his first-team debut at Manchester United, but failed to settle down. After Lille also moved, he has been steadily active since the 2021-2022 season, jumping to the starting lineup. Many people were worried about the big accident of a young player born in 2000, but from the situation so far, it is expected that there will be no problem in returning as a player.
