U.S. women's national team midfielder Seo Banner DeMelo (27, Racing Louisville) collapsed during the game.

DeMelo suddenly collapsed during the extra time of the first half when he was 0-0 in the NWSL (American Women's Soccer League) game against Seattle Lane at Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington on the 15th (Korea time). Medical staff and paramedics who were waiting rushed to the scene and received treatment. After the first half, the game was suspended.

The NWSL comforted its fans on social media, saying 'DeMelo has regained consciousness and is in a stable condition' and is closely communicating with the club with his health as the top priority.




DeMelo joined Louisville in 2022 after playing for the U-20 women's team in the U.S. and has been active until now. In the 2023 FIFA Australia-New Zealand Women's World Cup, he was selected as the final member of the national team and played in the finals.

Subbanner has had health problems before. He was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and missed the NWSL game in March due to poor condition.

The home team, the Seattle club, posted on social media that `Our love goes out to the Savannah and to everyone in the Louisville club. I would also like to express my gratitude to the fans who are in difficult times together.
