EURO 2020 live: news of the European Championship, today June 13 | Christian Eriksen Last Minute

PETER SCHMEICHEL ALSO CHARGES AGAINST UEFA

Peter Schmeichel, Danish international exporter and father of Kasper Schmeichel, the goalkeeper who played for Denmark on Saturday, charged hard against UEFA for the decision to resume the match after the incident suffered by Eriksen on BBC Radio 5.

“It was totally ridiculous that UEFA opted for a solution like this. Something terrible has happened and UEFA has given the players the option of playing the last 55 minutes or returning at 12 o’clock today (Sunday), What kind of option is that? You have to go back to your hotel, which in the case of Denmark is 45 minutes from the stadium, surely you can’t sleep because seeing something like that affects you enormously, of course, and then you go back to the team bus at eight in the morning to play the rest of the party. That is not an option, it is a ridiculous decision by UEFA and they should have tried to work in a different scenario and show some compassion. They did not.

I don’t know if there was another solution, but why at 12 in the morning? Why do we have to take into consideration the television schedule? Why at 12 in the morning? To be honest, it has been ridiculous. The outcome of the match is totally irrelevant. I have to be very honest, they make that decision of whether the players go out to play, only if Christian is well and for good, it means that he is alive and talking to them. They knew it was okay. It was very hard and I couldn’t understand the decision. How could it be played? “
