Taiwan Awoniyi fell into a coma and was in intensive care after a “emergency” surgery for a serious abdominal injury, which could reveal that it could be life-threatening.
The Nottingham Forest striker fell into the position in a 2-2 draw with Leicester on Sunday, resumed his action after a few minutes of treatment before being taken off.
Forest confirmed Tuesday that the 27-year-old had undergone emergency surgery after confirming his injury on Monday and was taken to the hospital. Mail Sport knows the initial signs that the surgery has been successful. In a complex medical process, doctors hope to complete the surgery today.
In some cases, the injury is a nature that can be fatal. Forest said the striker is “recovering well.”
The club was accompanied by attacks on its own medical staff, as well as those including Gary Neville of Sky Sports, who criticized owner Evangelos Marinakis for entering the field and appeared to demonstrate with the Boss Nuno Espirito Santo.
Awoniyi cannot be replaced because the forest used the last available switch to replace Elliot Anderson with Jota Silva. The strikers tried to move on, but as the forest chased the late champions, it would improve their Champions League qualification hopes.

Marinakis questioned Nuno full time after they played with 10 men.
But in a remarkable statement, the club clarified the issue. It reads: “The severity of the injury of Taiwan Awoniyi is a powerful reminder of the physical risks in the game and why the health and well-being of the players always emerge first. This principle is not only a policy to us, but also a firm belief and belief in our owners. For Evangelos Marinakis, it is not only a club, but a family, who instills this message in all of us.
“That’s why he invested so personally and emotionally in this situation. His reaction is one of deep care, responsibility and emotional investments among one of our own.
“He not only sees it as an isolated incident, but also reflects the values and unity of the entire team.
In such a moment, he demonstrates his leadership not only through words, but through actions and presence.
“He’s getting harder to stay on the court when he clearly sees our players feel uncomfortable.
“It is instinctive, human, and reflects what this team and its people mean to him. If such an unfortunate event was repeated, he would do it again.
“There is no confrontation with Nuno or others in the stadium. There is only a shared sense of frustration between us and the medical team should never allow players to continue.
Evangelos Marinakis expresses concern about medical staff handling injuries
In view of this, we urge former coaches and players, as well as other public figures in the game, to resist the urge to rush online trials and fake news, especially when they do not have complete facts and context.
‘For the purpose of personal social media traction, unfounded, unwise anger is serving no one of all injured players. We call on these influential voices to express respect for the welfare of players, who are often demanding from others. Get attention before commenting. ”
Shortly after the exchange between Nuno and Marinakis, Neville wrote on social media: “That forest owner scandal. Nuno should go to negotiate with him tonight! Forest fans, players and managers are not worth it.”
To intensify the matter, the Awoniyi incident occurred when Anthony Elanga (Anthony Elanga who Awoniyi is chasing) was allowed to score, although obviously an offside.
The match continued due to delays in lifting the flag by the assistant referee.
Two drop points may be crucial to the forest. Even if they win the remaining two games, they rely on others to lower the Champions League position.
