During the match, Ahmad climbed to the top of the stadium to be seen and heard by his football heroes.
While encouraging his team, Ahmad lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Top officials from Al Rams Club rushed him to Al Rams Medical Centre, where the physician on duty referred him to Saqr Hospital. Ahmad was taken in an ambulance to Saqr Hospital where he was admitted to the ICU and his parents were called in.
Mohammad Hassan, Ahmad's father, showed up at the hospital and the physicians told him that his son would have to remain for some time.

Delegations from Al Rams Club, and players visited Ahmad in the hospital and said they will keep in touch with him in the hospital till he is discharged.
