Stop of the match due to a medical emergency

According to The Sun: The match between Charlton and Portsmouth in the Championship was halted due to a medical emergency among the spectators. Both clubs were looking to return to winning ways in their afternoon meeting at The Valley. However, the game was suspended after 12 minutes when medical staff rushed to assist one of Charlton's fans who had deteriorated in the Covered End section.

Referee Matthew...

Such incidents remind us that the health and safety of spectators must always come first during sporting events. We hope the fan receives proper medical assistance and recovers quickly.
