Napoli midfielder Scott McTominay has revealed that he required an emergency heart procedure just 48 hours before Scotland’s World Cup opener. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
Sharing the startling revelation regarding his health, McTominay said that it felt horrible to be confined to a hospital bed while his teammates were finalising their tactical plans for the first game.
Scott added that despite crashing out before the knockout rounds, he was proud to have battled through the tournament for Scotland.
His words, “I had to go and get the shock on my heart. It was two days before the Haiti game. You’ve prepared so well. I was in such good condition and then something like that happens.
You’re thinking, ‘how is this happening to me?’ You have to get on with it, that’s the cards that you’re dealt in football.
Sometimes, things don’t go your way. I was 100% fit, but obviously, whenever you’re sat in a hospital bed two days before the first game of the World Cup about to get put to sleep, it’s not ideal, is it?”
