Credit to the medical team to stand their ground under the pressure of taking him off that early in the game. Seen some claims online that he overplayed it and that’s why he got so upset when taken out of play, but really seems to been a serious knock to the head.
 
Have to question the Swedes why they wanted him travel in the first place if there were any doubts about his recovery from concussion, I know players don't travel third class but I have never found airports or plane travel relaxing.

My guess is that there is a concussion protocol where he had to wait until Day X to do the intense training. That was whilst on international duty so club and country agreed the plan. Obviously, if there had been on problems he would have been fit to play for his country.

I have no problem with this proactive stuff. What I do have a problem with is coercion from clubs on their players not to play for their countries.
 
This is from the NHS website on concussion, looks like NHS advice is different to sporting bodies.

The minimum time someone should take to return to normal life and sport is 21 days.
