A footballer saved his teammate's life when his heart stopped beating and he collapsed on the pitch.
Hero Nathan Haynes said seeing professional footballers Fabrice Muamba and Christian Eriksen suffering cardiac arrests while playing helped spur him into action. The 26-year-old, who was on the sidelines nursing an injury, used a defibrillator to bring defender Scott Towers back to life.
Merseyside firefighter Nathan, who is also a trained emergency care assistant, said: "You could see it was serious straight away by the body language of the ref and players. I knew what a cardiac arrest was but seeing what happened to Fabrice Muamba, Christian Eriksen and Charlie Wikes definitely helped identify it.
