FORMER TT goal-keeper Shaka Hislop fainted during a live broadcast on ESPN on Sunday.
Hislop was at the Rose Bowl in California, US doing commentary for a preseason match between AC Milan and Real Madrid.
Hislop was seen wobbling before falling to the ground. His colleague, Dan Thomas quickly shouted for help, saying, "Shak, Shak. We need some help."
At half-time, Thomas said Hislop was looking "okay."
"As it stands, it is good news. He is conscious, he is talking. I think he is a little embarrassed by it all he has apologised profusely. Not a man who likes people to make a fuss of him. Obviously too early to make a diagnosis, but the important thing is that Shaka is conscious."
Hislop represented TT at the 2006 World Cup in Germany, the only time this country competed at the prestigious tournament.
