Martinez's condition 'not life-threatening' after ex-Bristol Rovers player collapsed during game

Former Bristol Rovers player Pablo Martinez has been "stabilised" after he collapsed while playing for Chippenham Town on Saturday.

Chippenham's National League South game against Chelmsford City at Hardenhuish Park was abandoned after 27 minutes when 21-year-old Martinez collapsed in the centre circle. Half an hour later, Chippenham confirmed he had been "stabilised and is breathing" and the player was taken to a Bristol hospital.

This evening, Chippenham confirmed Martinez's condition is "not life-threatening".
