Christian Eriksen posted a photo on his social media and sent a message from his hospital bed

The Danish international Christian Eriksen, who remains hospitalized after suffering a collapse on Saturday in the Denmark-Finland European Championship, said today that he is “fine” and grateful for the displays of affection.

“I’m fine, under the circumstances. I still have to pass some tests in the hospital, but I’m fine, “he said in a message posted on his Instagram account and also posted on the official account of the Danish Federation (DBU) on Twitter.

The benchmark of the Denmark National Team thanked for the “sweet and amazing” greetings and messages that have come to him from all over the world and he said they mean “a lot” to him and his family.

“Hello everybody. Thank you so much for your sweet and amazing greetings and messages from around the world. It means a lot to me and my family. I’m fine, under the circumstances. I still have some tests to go through in the hospital, but I feel fine. Now, I will cheer on the boys of the Denmark national team in the next matches “wrote the Danish next to a photo taken from the bed of the Rigshospitalet hospital, one of the best care centers in the country.

Eriksen faded in the 43rd minute, alone, with the band, for reasons still unknown. He was clinically dead for a time after suffering a cardiac arrest, until he was resuscitated with a defibrillator, as confirmed by the doctors of the Danish team.

“We recovered it with the first shock of the defibrillator”, He said Morten Boesen at a press conference. “It was brief and crucial”, detailed about the tense minutes that were lived at the Parken Stadion.

The meeting was initially suspended by UEFA, but it was resumed almost two hours later after checking his colleagues that Eriksen was in good condition. The Danish coach and players have criticized that UEFA only gave them two options – either to resume the game that day or to do it the next – and they have regretted being forced to play when they were unable to do so.

Finland, which debuted in a great final phase, ended up taking the win by 0-1 with a goal from Joel Pohjanpalo in the 59th minute. Denmark had a penalty to equalize the match, but it was ruined by Pierre-Emile Höjbjerg.

The next presentation of the Danish team will be next Thursday, when those led by Kasper Hjulmand face the Belgian team in the same stadium where the episode that united world football took place, the Parken Stadion.
