Serbian international Marko Aranutović reported a panic attack during the match against Serbia in Vienna, in the first leg of the play-offs to stay in the Nations League A.
He says he felt very nauseous and dizzy during the match that ended 1:1 last night in Vienna.
Arnautović assisted on the home team's opening goal, with Luka Samardžić equalizing later in the game.
The second leg is on Sunday in Belgrade.
"I felt a lot of pressure in my upper stomach, and at the same time I had a panic attack, I don't know why. The doctors quickly examined me, gave me something to make me feel better and everything went back to normal, so I was able to continue," Arnautović told Bild.
The Inter striker pointed out that a panic attack may have caused the sharp pain he felt in his knee.
"I suddenly felt nauseous and dizzy. Maybe it was because of my knee, I felt a sharp pain in my kneecap. But after that everything was fine and I continued playing," he added.
Arnautović was missing...
"I take responsibility, and it's my fault," he said.
