With the assistance of Sussex police and the Premier League, the club's security team considered suspending the game, but because the vast majority of the audience and players on both sides were unaware of it at the time, they finally decided to continue the game. This move is intended to avoid additional risks caused by interrupting the event, interfering with rescue work, or causing emergency treatment when patients are regaining awareness and needing to be sent to the hospital urgently. Dr. Rob Galloway, a physician and emergency medicine consultant at the club, said: "First of all, I would like to express my sincere condolences to the relatives and friends of the deceased. Although the ending is heartbreaking, from the perspective of emergency response, medical treatment is a model. The professional performance of the club security and Sussex police has created the best treatment conditions for the medical team." The Brighton Club also provided several relevant institutions at the end of the article, saying that employees or fans who witnessed the incident can contact these 24-hour assistance hotlines at any time to seek support or help.
