King was stretchered off and transported to a hospital, where she was reported as responsive and undergoing further evaluation. The incident occurred in the 74th minute, and though the game resumed and ended in a 2-0 win for Angel City, the decision to continue play sparked discussion among players, coaches, and officials about protocols for serious medical events.
