PARIS, France (AFP) — Christian Eriksen collapsed during Denmark’s friendly against Ukraine on Sunday, five years after suffering a cardiac arrest during the European Championships.
“Christian Eriksen is conscious and doing well under the circumstances,” the Danish football association wrote on social media.
The 34-year-old has worn a pacemaker on his heart since he collapsed during the group stage game against Finland at Euro 2020, which was played in 2021.
