Muamba remains in 'critical condition'

Bolton footballer Fabrice Muamba was still in "critical condition" in intensive care Sunday after suffering a suspected cardiac arrest, a joint statement issued by the club and the London Chest Hospital said.

"As is normal medical practice, Fabrice remains anaesthetised in intensive care and will be for at least 24 hours," the statement added. "His condition continues to be closely monitored by the cardiac specialists at the hospital."

The 23-year-old Kinshasa-born player was rushed to hospital after harrowing scenes towards the end of the first half of an FA Cup tie against Tottenham at White Hart Lane on Saturday, when the midfielder slumped to the turf with no player near him.
