Christian Eriksen collapses during Denmark friendly, match abandoned
Christian Eriksen collapsed on the pitch at Odense Stadion during Denmark's friendly against Ukraine after clutching his chest; medical staff immediately attended and the match was suspended and later abandoned. The Danish Football Association said Eriksen is conscious and "feeling well according to the circumstances," and national team doctor Morten Boesen said Eriksen walked to an ambulance with his wife and was taken to a nearby hospital for further checks. The incident recalls Eriksen's 2021 cardiac arrest and his return to play with an implanted cardioverter-defibrillator, so his condition will directly affect his availability and Denmark's squad plans for upcoming fixtures.

Hopefully he recovers well, but at the age of 34, having played for some big clubs and won some trophies, it's time to hang up the boots. Anything other than that at this stage is unfair to his family, and to himself even.
Jeez not again. 🙏for a full recovery.
Hope he is doing well now! ❤️
Glad he's alright. But maybe he should consider retirement before it's too late.
Wait, again?? I assumed this was some revisiting of 2021 when I read it.
glad he is ok but time to hang up boots for u and your family’s sake matey

The statement from the Danish FA According to Google Translate - Christian Eriksen is conscious and is doing well under the circumstances. The match has been called off.
Sounds like his fitted defibrillator did its job - it's amazing he's still committed to friendlies with Denmark after a hard relegation season with Wolfsburg. Glad he's up and about
Wasn’t he the one that collapsed at the Euros? Yikes

Blimey, hasn’t this happened to him before or am I confusing him with someone else?
I don't like this. Hearing about him collapsing in the pitch is something that will always stay with me.
