Brighton defender Jan Paul Van Hecke was forced on a stretcher after suffering a bad head injury during the shock of his team with Brentford.
The Seagulls underwent a 4-2 defeat of the Gtech community stadium to stretch their race without the first league victory at five.
And Fabian Hurzeler’s team will remain sweating on the health of Van Hecke after facing the heads with Yunus Konak.
The incident occurred deeply in the time of stopping and the Dutch needed treatment, including an oxygen mask.
Van Hecke has briefly assembled before being relaxed and stretched by medical staff.
He was applauded by the two series of supporters when he was shot down from the tunnel, the defender was then replaced by January by signing Eiran Cashin.

Meanwhile, Brentford’s Konak was also expected to be replaced – but it managed to leave without any medical assistance.
The match then resumed, with an additional 10 minutes added to the stoppage.
Brighton will have to keep an eye on Van Hecke before facing West Ham next Saturday due to the guidelines on the concussion of the Premier League.
Players suspected of having a concussion are not allowed to come back to play for at least six days.
Brighton took the lead in six minutes thanks to the penalty of Bryan Mbeumo before Danny Welbeck was equalized for the hosts just before the break.
Mbeumo resumed Brentford’s advance three minutes after the start of the second half and Yan Wissa added a third goal for bees after 58 minutes.
Brighton striker, Joao Pedro, was then shown a red to unleash defender Nathan Collin in an incident out of the ball.
Karou Mitoma put Brighton for a goal eight minutes before time – but Christian Norgaard sealed the victory for Brentford in the fifth minute of the additional time.
