After receiving criticism for finishing a match last week despite Angel City FC defender Savy King collapsing on the field, the NWSL announced Friday that it has changed its protocols for similar situations in the future.

NWSL says its protocols will change after Angel City defender Savy King required emergency medical care during a game against the Utah Royals.

The NWSL said Friday that play should not have resumed after Savy King collapsed during a recent matchup between Angel City and the Utah Royals and that future matches featuring similar circumstances will be abandoned.
