Ex-Tottenham midfielder Ryan Mason slams decision on 'unconscious' James

  /  Rick

Former Tottenham midfielder Ryan Mason has criticised Wales' handling of Daniel James' head knock with the winger playing on despite laying motionless on the pitch.

The Manchester United star was involved in a collision with Croatia's Domagoj Vida during Wales' 1-1 draw at Cardiff City Stadium on Sunday.

Players and the referee immediately asked for medical staff to attend the incident as James lay on the field with his eyes closed.

The 21-year-old was allowed to continue playing after leaving the field for treatment, in a decision which angered Mason.

After being forced to retire in 2018 after suffering a sickening concussion while playing for Hull City, the 28-year-old was incredulous at the call by the Welsh medical staff.

"Daniel James was just knocked out unconscious! Yet three minutes later he has been allowed back onto the pitch," Mason posted on his Twitter account.
