– Araujo got back onto his feet after the incident but after jogging back towards his own box, he collapsed to the ground.
– Barca players immediately waved to the sidelines for medical attention, and Araujo was loaded onto a stretcher and then, after difficulties on the behalf of the paramedics, onto the ambulance.

– Hopefully, the hospital trip is simply a precaution and Araujo is okay after the clash of heads.
– But it was certainly a scary scene to see the Uruguayan collapse to the ground after initially getting back onto his feet.
