Miracle workers, the response & treatment was a miracle, 🙏 for a full and speedy recovery Christian.

Finish supporters shouting 'Christian' & the Danes following with 'Eriksen'.

Good to hear he is stable. Horrifying moment that.

The next 24 hours will be important I suppose, what a hideous thing to happen to him..

His poor poor wife having to watch on….

Christian Eriksen had a Facetime call with his teammates from the hospital and asked them to play the game tonight, as “he feels better now”, @sportstudio just reported

Crikey

Hope for a speedy recovery. Top player who I always enjoyed watching.

Also medical workers are so under appreciated. The last year has shown us how critical they are. They deserve top dollar and are the real heroes.

What a rollercoaster of a few hours.

One minute I'm nearly in tears, literally shouting at the telly make him wake up, next thing I'm chuckling like fuck at Chopper calling me a bad divvy.

Get proper well very soon Christian lad. YNWA.

He's one of those players who just loves the game and gets on with it, no drama or headlines. Hoping he makes a full recovery and returns to football, in any capacity.

Willing for the best recovery for him

Peter Moller of the Danish Football Association told Danmarks Radio: "We have been in contact with him [Eriksen] and the players have spoken to Christian. He is doing well and they are playing the match for Christian".

I know i'm flogging a dead horse but nothing from any official Denmark source claims Christain told the players to play the match for him.

Glad he is doing well.

why is this important to you?

They players wanted to play it apparently once they knew he was doing well.

I was trying to listen to the game on 5 Live, but I think it was Carney on the main comms and she was doing my head in so switched it off about 5 mins before half time. Extremely shocked to then click on the match thread on RAWK about an hour later and read what happened to Eriksen.

Wishing him all the best for a very speedy recovery.

I done this. I was lying on the couch half listening to it and heard “this looks bad” or something along those lines and I thought it was a bad tackle or something. Obviously rewinding back shocked me, it was horrific.

Thanks for the advice, I'll make sure I don't.

You just know the Scum on Sunday will have the worst possible picture on its front page tomorrow, same as they did with Foe.

Do you want a transcript of the call? I'm sure if you wrote to the Danish FA they'd give it to you.

rodderzzz · « **Reply #59 on:** June 12, 2021, 10:31:49 pm »

Great news that Christian is OK, but I disagree that the game should have been played just because he said to play it. I’m not sure a man who’s just had a heart attack and from what the images show quite possibly was dead for a few minutes should be the decider on whether an international game should continue or not. It once again stinks of big wigs more worried about sponsorship fall out than doing the right thing.

Uefa should have said ‘fortunately Christian is stable, and although he did request the game continue, tonight is not the right time to do so, let’s revisit it tomorrow.’

Barneylfc∗ · « **Reply #60 on:** June 12, 2021, 10:34:14 pm »

I highly doubt he dictated to them that they had to play the game.

They had the option to play tomorrow. After discussing with Eriksen, they chose to finish tonight.

stevieG786 · « **Reply #61 on:** June 12, 2021, 10:36:38 pm »

Man, I feel sick hearing about Erikson, I’m glad I wasn’t watching, hope he pulls through. Please pull through Christian.

In Sha Allah

darragh85 · « **Reply #62 on:** June 12, 2021, 10:47:42 pm »

good to hear that he is stable now and will hopefully make a full recovery.

this has been on the cards for a while now though. Players are being absolutely flogged and Jurgen pretty much predicted last season that something like this was going to happen with the way football is being run nowadays and the influence the media have over everything. he was dismissed as a ranter and attacked left, right and centre by the media

was there really a need for this tournament to go ahead this summer. it couldnt go ahead last summer, obviously, due to the pandemic but why did it have to be rescheduled. would have killed to give players a break this once? they couldnt give a damn about player welfare. as long as the media and coroporate interests are looked after thats all that matter.

i dont know exactly how it was agreed to restart this game today but it looked to me that a player was subbed off after having a heart attack and the game just went on as normal.

There's literally nothing to suggest what happened is connected to the amount of games Eriksen has played this season.

He's played in 34 games for Inter. His lowest number of club games in a season since his first season with Ajax in 2009/10.

PoetryInMotion · « **Reply #66 on:** June 12, 2021, 11:12:58 pm »

Couldn't help being almost in tears and I was jumping up & down for a while after seeing that. Relieved that he has stabilised and he will be in my prayers until he recovers fully.

On one hand, it's an example of how there are things that are more important than football. On the other hand, it's nice to see football uniting the world and people from various countries praying for/wishing him a speedy recovery.

Shepnois · « **Reply #67 on:** June 12, 2021, 11:26:21 pm »

Shocking scenes today, I can only imagine what his teammates and his family were and are still going through. I was so relieved to hear he was awake and stable. What his teammates did for him was incredible and the work of the medics saving his life was amazing, they’re heroes. How they stay calm in situations like that is remarkable we’re so lucky to have people like that to help us in an emergency. I’ll be raising a glass and wishing Eriksen makes a full recovery tonight.

Sat in a pub full of bevied people and we get close ups of the guy getting CPR and his wife in tears. Mercifully it looks like he is going to be ok, but have the BBC become S** TV?!
Shameful from them that, we won’t show a streaker but let’s have a close up of a guy fighting for his life. It’s not an episode of casualty. Have some fucking respect FFS.

I had some horrible flashbacks of Marc Vivien Foe while this was taking place. Really glad he's safe.

Too often the focus on footballers is how much they earn and what lifestyles they live, yet it's easy to forget they have partners and kids watching them out there, and life is just too precious to stress the small things.

stevieG786 · « **Reply #73 on:** June 13, 2021, 12:50:23 am »

On the bright side I guess it’s good that it happened there on the pitch with medical staff on call, then it happening in his hotel room by himself

It's interesting because I had almost the exact opposite reaction. The BBC don't control the shots, they get the same video feed as everyone else worldwide, and clearly they weren't prepared because this has never happened in a game this major.

What I found far more distressing was when they went back to the studio and Alex Scott was talking about having the need to phone her mum to make sure she was okay, and everyone talking about it as a tragedy - like he was already dead! - despite the fact no one knew what the circumstances were. In a way, I was glad they did keep the feed on, because if they'd have switched sooner I'd have assumed he had probably died on the pitch. But ultimately, I think everyone agrees the important thing is that Eriksen is all right in the long term. Our personal reactions aren't really the point.

I was so relieved when I heard he was still alive. That whole thing was so horrible to witness on tv, can't imagine what the fans in the ground suffered. Great job by the paramedics, can't thank you enough guys. Makes me wonder if the prem players could organise a whip round to spread around the paramedics as a little bonus?

He played 54 games for both clubs in 19/20 and a shit load of Internationals in two years up until now.

Again, that's just speculation right now. For all we know, he might have developed a condition that has gone undiagnosed. We'll have to wait for confirmation but there's nothing to suggest that it's because the number of games he's played.

Either way, best wishes to him for a speedy and full recovery.

Erm... So if UEFA basically told the Danish team they could play either the same night or today at lunch time, and the players then, quite understandably decided: there‘s no way we‘ll be able to rest tonight and be able to go back out on the pitch the next day - how is that not UEFA putting them under pressure?

It was apparent when the players returned on the pitch that hardly any of them were in any mental state to resume the match... and Kjaer, the team‘s CAPTAIN, even requested to be subbed off because he couldn‘t go on playing.
