Newcastle defender Schar slammed heads with Georgia’s Jemal Tabidze early on in the game as they challenged inside the box, leaving the Swiss player prone on his back and seemingly out cold.

Concerned players from both teams rushed over and placed Schar in the recovery position, as medics ran over to treat him.

Incredibly, after returning to his senses and receiving around four minutes of medical care, the 27-year-old was deemed fit enough to continue.
