prayers for Denmark's Christian Eriksen

[cerbera45]

Desperately hoping things aren't as bad as they first appear after receiving CPR in today's match against Finland

Just seen the events of the Denmark v Finland game, and Christian Erikkson collapsing.

Puts it all into perspective really.....so we got relegated to the National league!

Reminded me of the time Mike North collapsed , and sadly died at Roots Hall ( The referee) R;I;P

That was 20 years ago, but brings it all back.

Thoughts are with his family

footballers around the world .As well as fans spare a thought for Christian Eriksen and his family .I pray he pulls through what seemed very concerning for his poor wife that was having to watch her husband having CPR on the pitch .

It’s made me sick to the core, very distressing to see. Thoughts and prayers to him and he’s family ???

 

[Floval Flyer]

Shocking to see.

Social media saying it was a heart attack, but now he’s conscious, but nothing on official news channels.

I hope he recovers, very upsetting scenes

Reports circulating that Christian is sitting up in a recovery room.

Please, please let this be true

Yes, shocking event. We all need to make the most of our time, regardless of our age. Good luck Christian.

The way he went down you knew it was bad. So glad he is stable and in hospital. My daughter hates football but she had a good cry and was so happy to find our Eriksen is still with us

Campaign for every grassroots sports club, gym and school to have a defibrillator. It's crazy that it's not mandatory and government funded. The Justin Edinburgh 3 Foundation are doing great work, but in some ways they shouldn't have to be.

I'm assuming we have one ready for home games? Who has it as part of their kit? Is it the Physio or St Johns. I'm hoping it's someone on the Physio side of things. The speed at which the St Johns come strolling out with the stretcher sometimes I'd be worried.

All seriousness hopefully he is ok. Seen pictures in the media on the stretcher and looked alert ish and reports that he has spoken with his team mates from the hospital. I would imagine that's his Euros over

I didn't see it but obviously heard about it. You would have expected players at this level to have regular ECGs, wouldn't you?

Not only the JE3 foundation doing great work, but also Karl Lansley and his kids, with their https://www.carlilansleyfoundation.org.uk/ pushing for screening for young people.

Seems Christian is now stable - thank goodness for that - but reports seem to indicate that he's unlikely to play football again.

Life is short. All those petty little dramas you have with people squash them now and be thankful for life. What’s here today could be gone tomorrow!

So glad he seems to be pulling through. Great, fast reaction from the players and referee to act so quickly.

That’s the reason I hate players faking injury. What if the medics were treating someone on the other side of the pitch who wasn’t even injured ? Every second counts in a situation like that ! The professional game needs to have a long hard look at itself, in this respect.

Yes, good point!

Simon Kjær was a real leader on the pitch today for what he did for Eriksen and his family instantly positioned Christian Eriksen for CPR
