There it was, confirmation. It was quite sobering. Was it safe to assume it wasn't a Moroccan spectator? Surely Karim would know and would have said as much? If the British beaters were going to save their best shots for the crowd they could at least have the common courtesy to only hit their countrymen.
Zak wondered how long the match would be delayed for, would they keep their score or restart completely fresh? It wasn't unheard of for quidditch games to break if they went on for a long time and he assumed things would be picked up where they were left off but perhaps they wouldn't. It wasn't often someone in the stands died mid-game and as much as he loved quidditch he didn't have encyclopedic knowledge on the sport, he knew the important stuff and had picked up some interesting quidditch facts in his time but otherwise he knew what he had to and that was that.
More importantly though, how long did it take for shattered kneecaps to heal and would his hard work today count for nothing by the time the new match date came around? How long were they talking? "Will we be starting over completely? It hardly seems fair to carry the scores over if the injured British are back on the pitch like today never happened."
