gottseidank Hearing CPR was successful and Erikson is responsive. Prayers 🙏❣️ The next 24 hours will be critical for Eriksen, but a full recovery isn't out of the question. He can do this.#EURO2020 #Eriksen pic.twitter.com/fP03A41gRd— Lehan Fayaz (@lehanmadridismo) June 12, 2021
Both teams may be issued a point as I don't know if the schedule would allow a makeup and I can't see them asking the players and coaches to take the field today.
Just saw a photo, him on stretcher, eyes open, oxygen mask on, and holding his hand to his forehead. Certainly promising.
He is apparently 500 m from the top hospital in Copenhagen so faster to walk him acorss the street. That is reported on Guardian live feed
What? Both teams issued just a point? No that is ridiculous. I think they can totally reschedule tomorrow. Anyways, it seems Eriksen is awake which is good news.
phewww Following the medical emergency involving Denmark’s player Christian Eriksen, a crisis meeting has taken place with both teams and match officials and further information will be communicated at 19:45 CET. The player has been transferred to the hospital and has been stabilised.— UEFA (@UEFA) June 12, 2021
Eriksen was rushed to what is known as the Kingdom Hospital and according to the Danish FA he is now both alive and awake
Glad to hear he has been stabilized. Seeing the EMTs do chest compressions and what looked like a defibrillator was scary as anything.
You can't abandon a game where points matter, I can't see them asking the players to play again today. They play Thursday, so they can squeeze it in before Tuesday, I suppose, but I feel like if they can't then the only way to allow both teams to continue on is by calling it a draw and issuing a point to both sides.
As things stand, he is well.... right at a time, after 15 months of a life-endangering pandemic, just when one thought we could begin to re-enter normal life with fans in the stadium, this just showed how fragile life is. This is certainly something Ill take with me from tonight's football: cherish life.
There is right now a crisis meeting between the two teams and the referee, so we will see what kind of agreement they come up with
It would seem that UEFA are leaving it up to the two teams/countries to decide what is going to happen
let the players decide - that's sensible. I have no idea how they could continue. Respect to all of them no matter their decisions.
There are also reports coming in Kjaer helped saving his life Thank you Simon Kjaer!He made sure Eriksen didn’t swallow his tongue, made sure he was in the right position, never turned his back once and comforted Eriksen’s wife. 👏👏#Eriksen #EURO2020 #DENFIN— Sahil Bakshi (@SBakshi13) June 12, 2021
When the situation unfolded and one could see the Finish players on the sidelines watching, I asked myself, if I was a Finish player, would I have had the balls to walk over the field and join the Danish team shielding Eriksen or if they would have perceived that as offensive? I dont have an answer yet
All of us who watched it live saw him keeping his tongue out while Eriksen was lying on his side before being rolled on his back when medics arrived. It was a frightening scene from start to finish.
Game will continue, according to wish of the players Following the request made by players of both teams, UEFA has agreed to restart the match between Denmark and Finland tonight at 20:30 CET (TBC). The last four minutes of the first half will be played, there will then be a 5-minute half-time break followed by the second half.— UEFA (@UEFA) June 12, 2021
Both teams have now decided to play the remaining part of the match around 20 minutes from now, knowing that Eriksen is hospitalized but is ok
