A soccer player is fighting for his life after being struck by LIGHTNING during a match
21-year-old Luyanda Ntshangase was playing for his club side Maritzburg United in a friendly match in South Africa when the incident happened.
The player was rushed to hospital after being struck, with South African news-site Soccer Laduma reporting that he is "in an induced coma".
The striker is a South African youth international and has made two senior appearances for his club's first XI.
Club coach Fadlu Davids told Kick-off.com:
"He is still in ICU. We are asking the whole football fraternity to please pray for him so he can make a speedy recovery."
"We hope that the whole football fraternity keeps him in their prayers at this very difficult and crucial time.
“Luyanda is still in [the] hospital, and we will only know more this week.
"We’re hoping for the best, and know that the thoughts of South African football fans are with him.”
