Denmark national football team player Eriksen recovers consciousness in hospital

Danish star Christian Eriksen was taken to hospital and is in a stable condition and regained consciousness after collapsing and falling unconscious during the Danish team's match against his Finnish counterpart today, Saturday, at the start of the two teams' journey in the European Nations Cup (Euro 2020).

Eriksen, the Inter Milan star, collapsed on the field two minutes before the end of the first half, without any intervention from any other player, and the medical staff of the Danish team tried to treat the player for ten minutes before the referee decided to stop the match.

"The Euro 2020 match in Copenhagen has been suspended due to a medical emergency," the European Football Association (UEFA) said in a statement via the "Twitter" network.

Denmark players rallied around Eriksen, in shock to everyone who was on the field.

Some Denmark players cried after Eriksen fell to the ground in the 43rd minute.
