Immediately attended by medical staff, he was laid down on a stretcher where he remained for several minutes, while play was interrupted.

Henry Speight, Biarritz Olympique player involved in this incident, then offered to carry the stretcher.

“If our cameraman's family is watching us, he's fine,” explained Jenny Demay, her colleague in charge of the pitch.

He has a smile on his face, but his knee has gone a bit in the action.
