Argentine soccer player Emanuel Ortega passed away nearly two weeks after suffering a brutal and accidental injury during a game. Ortega, of fifth-tier club San Martín de Burzaco, suffered a double skull fracture on the pitch two weeks ago in a match against Juventud Unida.

Ortega was under the care of doctors almost immediately but even then people realized the situation was really bad. San Martín manager Critstian Ferlauto was gravely concerned for the well-being of his young player. “He has a serious trauma to the skull and there is a worrying amount of blood,” he said.

The player who bumped Ortega into the wall felt horrible and nobody holds anything against him because they no there was no ill intent. Ortega’s manager, however, was quick to blame the stadium, because there’s no way a concrete wall should reasonably be THAT close to the field of play.

“The wall is just a metre from the line. It’s crazy, there’s no protection. The security measures are taken thinking about the fans, and the fence is so high so that they can’t throw stones, but some things are more important,” he said.
