Don't they do a quick test on the side of the field? Not all hits to the head are concussions are they?

Pretty sure their test is "Do you want to continue?" there is no way they did any real test in the 30 seconds he was off the field.

Dutch should try more crosses and longballs. They're bigger than the Argies and Argentina has them clamped in the midfield.

You can't do a 1 second test for a concussion. It looked like he completely blacked out. It's almost certainly some level of brain trauma occurred another hit to the head could cause permanent damage.

"can you tell us your name, what day it is, and where you are?"

player looks down, looks around. "I'm an argentinian footballer, today's the big game, and I'm fucking off the field for some reason!"

"good enough"
 

What are those pictures supposed to prove?

you do realize when it comes to concussions and other head injuries you cannot see the effects outside most of the time.

Hell, working in the sporting industry for a few years I saw these injuries first hand a lot of the times.

A good friend of mine who is a cyclist cant balance himself properly after a crash he had in a race. There were no cuts, no obvious bruises or anything. He got back up and finished the race. A week later all the symptoms started.
