Collapsed to the ground in despair, Kone lay in agony, one hand supporting himself on the ground, the other clutching his fractured left leg. His teammates, after a moment of shock, rushed to his aid. In an instant, the Canadian team formed a protective circle around Kone as he received immediate first aid from medical staff. Witnessing their teammate's broken leg, some clutched their heads, others clasped their hands in prayer. Young defender Luc de Fougerolles stood silently, tears streaming down his face. His senior teammate, Maxim Crepeau, quickly embraced and comforted him.
The entire stadium, ablaze with the red of the home team's jerseys, rose to their feet in a moment of anxious anticipation, their eyes fixed on the circle of spectators surrounding him. They only breathed a sigh of relief when they saw their star player slowly rise from the stretcher and leave the field. Still reeling from the shock of his left leg being bandaged on the stretcher, Kone managed to sit up, breathing through an oxygen tube, but waving his hand towards the fans in all directions, his eyes welling up with tears. He understood the fans' affection after this unfortunate incident and wanted them not to worry too much about him.
The star of the attack had to leave the field on a stretcher and officially bid farewell to the tournament after two short matches; Canada's victory over Qatar was overshadowed by cold emotions and concerns about the player's career in a place that usually holds room for beauty.
The collision between the two players resulted in a broken leg and months of being sidelined for the Canadian player. Although it stemmed from a violent challenge, it was an unavoidable risk. Madibo himself held his head in remorse, watching his opponent suffer on the field, seemingly unable to comprehend what had just happened to both of them. Then, as he left the field after being sent off for a violent foul, he walked down the tunnel with tears in his eyes. Those tears of regret will surely haunt the Qatari defender for years to come, perhaps even into future football careers.
“We’ll be at the hospital right away to be with him and do everything we can to help Kone recover quickly,” said Jesse Marsch, coach of the Canadian team. One of his players, striker Nathan Saliba, after scoring the fourth goal for the home team, lifted Kone’s number 8 jersey and ran towards the stands. Kone will still be with his teammates.
