This won’t be the first time he (Gomis) would experience such circumstance but the players of both side were left shocked and anxiously waving for the medics uncontrollably.
After the attention of the medical Staggs, he was able to continue the game and also lasted the whole 90 minutes which saw his side lost the game.
The France International was diagnosed for a unique condition called vasovagal syncope; the syndrome involves a trigger which causes a sudden drop in heart rate and as a result, blood pressure significantly goes down as well.
This eventually leads to reduction of blood flow to the brain and can cause dizzy spells and at times fainting.
The condition is mostly caused by stress or heat, among other factors.
Patients of the syndrome have been made aware that there is no cure, but to be on the safe side, it is best to avoid the triggers.
