This is the moment that a man was reunited with the match steward who saved his life after he suffered a cardiac arrest at a football match.
David Ince, 67, from Haverhill in Suffolk, had heart problems during the Cambridge United v Rotherham United match in October.
Play stopped while steward Paul Harrison administered cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and helped to save his life.
The season ticket holder was taken to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge where he recovered.
In the video, Mr Ince returns to the Cledara Abbey Stadium and recalls events with Mr Harrison.
“Without CPR, I wouldn’t be here today,” said Mr Ince.
This week, BBC Radio Cambridgeshire is encouraging listeners to learn CPR as part of its Restart a Heart campaign.
