Denmark lost to the Netherlands in Amsterdam on Saturday in a friendly match (4-2).

But this is not the main information of the evening.

287 days after his heart attack in mondiovision during the Euro, on June 12, 2021, Christian Eriksen made his return to the national team.

And what a return.

Not even two minutes after coming into play after returning from the locker room, the now player of Brentford, in the Premier League, scored his 37th goal in 110 caps, with a nice shot in the top corner.

👏 Entry into play of Christian Eriksen who celebrates his return to the selection with a GOAL!

Much applauded by the Dutch public and by the coach of the Oranje, Louis van Gaal, when he entered the lawn, Eriksen raised his hands to the sky in thanks.

The 30-year-old attacking midfielder, who was very fit, also hit the Dutch post with a splendid long shot.

A nod to history: Eriksen, who now plays with a pacemaker, celebrated his return to selection at the Johan-Cruyff Arena in Amsterdam, where he made his professional debut with Ajax between 2009 and 2013.
