Play has been suspended in the Championship match between Fulham and Blackpool due to a medical emergency in the crowd.
Play was halted in the 16th minute after supporters in the Hammersmith End at Craven Cottage attracted the attention of the players and referee Peter Bankes.
Stewards were seen rushing to the incident, and were swiftly joined by club medical staff to attend to a supporter.
Fans used flags to cover the incident from view.
Referee Bankes then decided to take the players off the field of play.
The players returned to the field after the supporter was moved to the front of the stand and taken out of the ground.
Fulham said on Twitter: “The supporter being attended to is being transferred to the hospital.
“We’re sending our thoughts and best wishes for a full and speedy recovery.
“We will provide an update on the situation as soon as we have further information.”
