    IN MEMORIAM

    We look back at those we've lostin the sports world in 2012.​

    Hospital officials say Livorno midfielder Piermario Morosini has died after suffering cardiac arrest during his team's Serie B match at Pescara.
    Edoardo De Blasio, a cardiologist at Pescara's Santo Spirito hospital, confirmed the death Saturday, saying that ''unfortunately he was already dead when he arrived at hospital. He didn't regain consciousness.''
    Morosini, who was on loan from Udinese, fell to the ground in the 31st minute of the match and received urgent medical attention on the pitch. A defibrillator was also used on the 25-year-old.
    The match was called off, with the other players leaving the field in tears.

    Was in Italy at the time this happened. Just a joke at how the medics and people at the grounds handled the situation. Complete opposite of what went down in England.

    The worst part of Morosini is watching him try to stand and keep stumbling. For a guy with a failing heart he showed a shit ton of it. So sad. His family history is pretty bad as well, did find a bit of a pick me up in a couple of clubs talking about how they will compensate his sister, his only living family member. Just a terrible situation all around.

    It is especially odd in Italy, one of the few countries that goes above and beyond in trying to diagnose these heart problems in players before it becomes an issue.
