29-year-old Raul Jimenez was given oxygen on the pitch and the game was stopped for around 10 minutes. According to Wolves manager Nuno Espirito, he said: “You start hearing ‘code red’.” “It was a bad moment. What was the reaction? Panic, panic, panic. You could see the faces on the team-mates. It was a serious situation. It’s awful and terrible.”

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said he knew “something really bad is happening” from the reaction of the players. Brazil centre-back Luiz, 33, played on with a bandage wrapped around his head before being substituted at half-time.
Nuno said Mexico striker Raul Jimenez was having a scan and added: “He speaks, he’s aware. We have to have a proper assessment. He’s in good hands.” Jimenez, who was carried off the pitch on a stretcher, scored 17 goals as Wolves finished seventh in the Premier League last season.
He had netted four times in nine top-flight appearances this term before Sunday’s match and signed a new contract that will see him remain in the club until 2025.
