“Half-time here at the Rose Bowl, it is AC Milan 2 Real Madrid 0 but that of course is very much secondary to what happened ahead of the game,” Thomas stated on ESPN. “My mate, Shaka, [is] not here, but as it stands, it’s good news. He’s conscious, he’s talking. I think he’s a little embarrassed about it. He’s apologized profusely, not a man who likes people to make a fuss of him.
“Obviously far too early to make any sort of diagnosis, but the important thing is that Shaka’s conscious and we spoke to his family as well because you imagine seeing that happen live, there can’t be many more things that can scare you. Fortunately we have spoken to his wife and things are looking OK.”
