Blackpool star left requiring oxygen and rushed to hospital after terrifying clash

Blackpool star Daniel Grimshaw was left requiring oxygen and was rushed to hospital after a sickening clash with Preston striker Cameron Archer during the Lancashire derby.

The former Manchester City keeper had started the Championship clash at Deepdale on Tuesday night for the Seasiders. Archer was put through on goal by Alan Browne, with Grimshaw racing out to close him down.

But the two rivals clashed, with Archer appearing to catch Grimshaw on the head with his knee. The Blackpool star was given oxygen, with medical staff on the pitch for more than 10 minutes before he was stretchered off.

Chris Maxwell came on to replace in, with Blackpool using a concussion substitution to make the change. Those rules came into force this season, allowing both sides to make four substitutions in a game should it be invoked during proceedings.
