BRENDAN O’DRISCOLL, THE west Kerry footballer who collapsed during a club game last weekend, died at Cork University Hospital yesterday evening.
The Annascaul clubman suffered a suspected brain haemorrhage during a championship game with Lispole on Sunday.
O’Driscoll, 28, was helped by team-mates and opponents at the scene before he was rushed to Kerry General Hospital.
He was later transferred to Leeside.
The Camp native was a nephew of the All-Ireland medal winner Tommy Doyle who played for Kerry in the ’70s and ’80s.
