The referee noticed the situation, and the medical staff from the Rio Grande do Sul side had to come onto the field to assist him.

Despite the worrying scene, Weverton indicated that he was fine, stayed on the pitch, and was not substituted.

According to the SpotTV reporting team at the match, defender Walace said that Weverton had “blurred vision” at the moment he collapsed on the pitch.

See below how the situation unfolded:
