Along with the overwhelming support for Muamba, there has also been praise for the way that the medical staff and the fans responded on Saturday. Daniel Levy, the Spurs chairman, said: "We are immensely proud and grateful to the medical teams at both clubs, their response was immediate and professional. Our thanks also to both sets of fans for their support and behaviour. Too often we read the negatives about football and yet last night, at a time of intense emergency and uncertainty, we saw the true humanity and empathy of the footballing family."
