Shock as Khon Kaen player collides with opponent and loses consciousness; referee does not stop play, forcing coaching staff to rush onto the field to perform CPR before hospital transfer. The player has since regained consciousness and is under close medical supervision.
On October 25, 2026, reporters revealed an unexpected incident during the BYD Seal Five League 2, Matchday 8, between hosts Khon Kaen United at the Khon Kaen Provincial Administrative Organization Stadium and visitors Muang Loei United.
During the match, an unexpected incident occurred when Khon Kaen United captain and key player Wasusiwakit Phusirit collided with an opposing player and fell unconscious on the pitch for a prolonged period.
After the incident, the referee refused to blow the whistle to stop the game, allowing play to continue until coaching staff, team officials, and the stadium medical team sprinted onto the field to assess his condition, administer first aid, and perform CPR before rushing him to the hospital.
Khon Kaen United later provided an injury update on "Captain Mac" Wasusiwakit Phusirit following the elbow impact during the match. After being urgently transferred to Rajapruk Hospital, the captain has regained consciousness and is now under the full care of the medical team, though he remains under close observation.
