Dream evening Christian Eriksen at home audience | Football

When the players arrived, the midfielder could already count on a standing ovation. The former Ajax player was called forward before kick-off to reflect on his eventful return. During the national anthem, the Dane stood next to goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel. The goalie had asked national coach Kasper Hjulmand to give Eriksen the captain’s armband.

For Eriksen, Serbia’s home game is his first game at the Parken Stadium since he suffered a cardiac arrest at the Copenhagen stadium on June 12 last year. The Dane then collapsed in the European Championship match against Finland. Last Saturday he made his comeback as an international in the friendly against the Orange squad.

After just under an hour of playing, it became a dream evening for the former Ajax player, when he rewarded the audience with a goal.
