Denmark vs Finland match suspended after Christian Eriksen collapsed

Denmark star Christian Eriksen collapsed on the pitch in Saturday’s Euro 2020 game against Finland at the Parken Stadium in Copenhagen, causing the suspension of the match in the first half.

The match was stopped just minutes before half-time when players signalled the medical team to come onto the pitch to attend to Eriksen, who collapsed inside the Finland half.

Eriksen remained unmoved as the players and fans appeared visibly upset at the nature of the incident.

Some of the Denmark players circled Eriksen so he could receive treatment in privacy.

With the half-time whistle not blown, the Finland players began to walk off the pitch in the 55th minute.

Eriksen was carried off in a stretcher with the Denmark players surrounding him with a white cloth.
