Ante Žižić's horrific injury today (Monday) reminded sports fans of harsh images from the pitches, of other injuries that have occurred in our districts over the years.

Gary Johnson - Elitzur Ramla vs. Upper Galilee (National League Basket, February 2013)

One of the most serious injuries ever seen in Israeli basketball.

Gary Johnson, a foreign player from the Upper Galilee at the time, was injured when he tried to score a lay-up, and a Ramla player tried to block him.

An Upper Galilee player fell to the ground when he lost consciousness, he received initial treatment from the team physiotherapist before being rushed to the hospital and connected to a respirator.

Rafi Dahan - Bnei Yehuda vs. Maccabi Haifa (Premier League, March 2014)

An injury that we all probably remember, when during a game between Bnei Yehuda and Maccabi Haifa, Ruben Raios, a Maccabi Haifa player, entered with a wild surf with a straight leg in Bnei Yehuda player Rafi Dahan.

Manny Levy - Beitar Jerusalem vs. Maccabi Tel Aviv (Premier League, January 2002)

The most serious injury in the history of Israeli sports.

During the game between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Beitar Jerusalem, Maccabi striker Manny Levy collapsed on the way back to the defense without being in contact with any player.

He got up again for a few seconds, managed to ask Betar player David Amsalem "What's wrong with me?" Collapsed again, and lost consciousness while the base of his tongue blocked his airway for a while, which paralyzed him.

Moments of anxiety.,

Levy was treated at Beit Levinstein Hospital in Raanana, until he was transferred to the care of his family in a plant condition.

Levy has since been treated at home, under full supervision with minimal communication with facial expressions.
