Royal Antwerp teenager Lobanzo dies after cardiac arrest

Medical personnel and coaches present during Tuesday's training session tried to resuscitate the player before they transferred him to a hospital, the club said in a statement on their website.

Lobanzo remained in a critical condition for more than a day before he died, the club added. Antwerp said they have been counselling players and staff who witnessed the incident.
