LONDON: Luton's Premier League match at Bournemouth on Saturday was stopped after their captain Tom Lockyer collapsed on the pitch, BBC Sport reported.

Both sets of players were taken off midway through the second half as Lockyer received medical treatment.

After several minutes, he was taken off on a stretcher, applauded by all four sides of the ground.

Lockyer collapsed during the play-off final win against Coventry in May before being taken to hospital.

Further details are awaited.
