The 18-year-old Colombian was rushed to hospital after losing consciousness.
The distressing scenes were captured on video.
Caicdeo, considered by many to be a star of the future, is unlikely to feature again in the showpiece tournament.
She has been released from hospital.
‘What happened was just a symptom of all the stress and physical demands of a World Cup,’ a team official said.
Caicedo successfully battled ovarian cancer as a 15-year-old, undergoing surgery to remove a tumour and six months of chemotherapy.
Oof! It’s really happening daily now!
