Tottenham cup tie abandoned as Bolton's Muamba collapses

Tottenham's FA Cup quarter-final against Bolton was called off just before half-time after Trotters midfielder Fabrice Muamba suddenly collapsed and had to be carried off on a stretcher. With the game at 1-1, Muamba collapsed near the half-way line and play was suspended after 41 minutes. Amid worrying scenes, six paramedics raced across the pitch and appeared to try to resuscitate the England Under-21 international. Tottenham later confirmed the match was abandoned.
