After around 65 minutes, things became hectic on the field. TV footage on ‘DAZN’ showed that a Danish player had gone down without any contact from an opponent. At first, it was unclear who it was.
After that, the broadcast showed only one of the goals, the stadium initially fell completely silent before all the spectators joined in collective applause.
It surely brought back memories of the 2021 European Championship not only for those present on the pitch. Back then, Christian Eriksen had to be resuscitated after collapsing in the group-stage match against Finland.
Several minutes after the collapse, it became clear that a circle had formed around the affected player. The referee then officially abandoned the match, and the players from both teams came together once more in one large circle.
It is now clear: the player who collapsed was indeed Wolfsburg player Christian Eriksen once again. Fortunately, the Danish Football Association has since offered some cautious reassurance. A statement on ‘Instagram’ said: “Christian Eriksen is conscious and is doing as well as can be expected under the circumstances. The match has been abandoned.”
Earlier, several Danish sports newspapers had already reported that Eriksen had walked to the ambulance on his own.
Those are, of course, very good initial reports, but the scene once again caused a huge shock and great concern throughout the football world.
