Aston Villa fan praises paramedic who saved his life

The season ticket holder, who has two young daughters, described going to the game with his father and brothers.

He said he had felt “completely normal” in the hours before and remembered nothing of the incident.

“Olly Watkins scored and then I woke up in an ambulance,” he said.

His father Jason Moseley, who lives in Tipton, also met Ms Elliot on Monday and said she was “an angel” and a “beautiful person”.

He recalled seeing his son lying on the ground and, assuming he had fallen during goal celebrations, looking for blood.

“The next thing I remember was that a young lady in a little Villa top just appeared by me and said, ‘I’m a paramedic, let me through, give me some space.'”
