The players clashed while competing for a dropping ball
in the middle of the Everton half as the match entered stoppage time. Idrissa Gueye had hooked a cross clear as the Blues repelled a late Forest attempt to get back into the game.
The incident sparked immediate concerns with players urging the medical staff to enter the pitch after watching both players land heavily.Gibbs-White was able to walk off the pitch after several minutes of treatment but serious concern remained around the condition of Beto. A stretcher was brought on for the striker as his treatment continued, with teammates staying by Beto’s side. Home fans sang Beto’s name while he needed help and he was applauded off the pitch, where he was taken off at the vehicle entrance to the inner stadium and not in the direction of the tunnel.
The collision came at the start of nine minutes of stoppage time and with Everton leading their relegation rivals 2-0. Beto had been a second half substitute for Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
