Denmark's Christian Eriksen is recovering in hospital after collapsing during a Euro 2020 game, as his team doctor shared details of how medical staff tried to resuscitate him on the touchline.
Teammates of the Inter Milan and former Spurs player were in tears after he collapsed about 40 minutes into the game with Finland in Copenhagen, with no other players near him.
Denmark's team doctor Morten Boesen said: "We were called on the field when Christian fell over. I did not even get to see it, but it quickly became clear that he was not conscious".

In a statement posted to Twitter on Sunday 6/13/21, the Danish FA wrote: "This morning we have spoken to Christian Eriksen, who has sent his greetings to his teammates. His condition is stable, and he continues to be hospitalised for further examination.

"The team and staff of the national team has received crisis assistance and will continue to be there for each other after yesterday's incident.

"We would like to thank everyone for the heartfelt greetings to Christian Eriksen from fans, players, the Royal Families from both Denmark and England, international associations, clubs etc.

"We encourage everyone to send their greetings to the Danish FA, where we will make sure they are all passed on to Christian and his family."
