Eastleigh defender Archie Harris has been discharged from hospital after a collision with Scunthorpe’s Jean Belehouan in Tuesday night’s abandoned Enterprise National League match.
The game at Silverlake Stadium was level at 1-1 when play was brought to a halt following the incident in the seventh minute of stoppage time.
Both men received medical attention on the pitch from paramedics, with referee Harry Wager telling the rest of the players to go back to the changing rooms, before the match was eventually abandoned.
Archie Harris has now been discharged from hospital following a CT scan and several other tests which have come back as all clear.
