RIP Keagan Girdlestone  He was a 19yo from South Africa and he was death during an u23 competition

 

terrible news. A very interesting talent, but no longer

Girdlestone didn't die! Those were rumours being speculated on social media, but he is not dead. He is in the intensive care in a hospital in a "critical but stable" condition.

 

So again, he is not dead.

Well, it's a good news. I hope that it will confirm

That is indeed great news. I hope that he will be okay.
