It was a cardiac arrest,\u201d Morten Boesen <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/soccer\/denmark-den\/story\/4407267\/denmarks-christian-eriksen-gone-before-cardiac-resuscitation-team-doctor\"><span>said<\/span><\/a><span>. \u201cHow close were we [to losing Eriksen]? I don\u2019t know.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cWe got him back after one defibrillator, so that\u2019s quite fast. I\u2019m not a cardiologist, so the details I will leave to the experts at the hospital.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Eriksen collapsed in the 43rd minute of the match on a throw-in before players rushed to his side and called for immediate medical attention. Medical staff worked for over 10 minutes trying to stabilize Eriksen, as his teammates formed a protective circle around their teammate. The game was stopped for just under two hours before the decision to resume play was made, resulting in a 1-0 victory for Finland.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Erikson was rushed to the hospital and is in stable condition and recovering.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cThis morning we have spoken to Christian Eriksen, who has sent his greetings to his <\/span><span>teammates<\/span><span>. His condition is stable, and he continues to be hospitalized for further examination,\u201d the Danish Football Association <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2021\/06\/13\/football\/christian-eriksen-stable-spt-intl\/index.html\"><span>said<\/span><\/a><span> on Sunday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Denmark coach <\/span><span>Kasper Hjulmand said the team spoke with Eriksen before the decision was made to resume play.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The decision will undoubtedly be heavily scrutinized over the next several days. According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/football\/2021\/jun\/12\/denmark-coach-kasper-hjulmand-i-cant-praise-my-players-enough\"><span>The Guardian<\/span><\/a><span>, players were given two options: continue the game or return on Sunday at 2pm to complete the match.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cThere was no pressure from Uefa to play tonight,\u201d <\/span><span>Hjulmand<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/football\/2021\/jun\/12\/denmark-coach-kasper-hjulmand-i-cant-praise-my-players-enough\"><span>said<\/span><\/a><span>. \u201cWe knew we had two options. The players couldn\u2019t imagine not being able to sleep tonight and then having to get on the bus and come in again tomorrow. Honestly it was best to get it over with. Of course you can\u2019t play a game with such feelings and what we tried to do was incredible.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/soccer\/denmark-den\/story\/4407267\/denmarks-christian-eriksen-gone-before-cardiac-resuscitation-team-doctor\">ESPN<\/a>,\u00a0Hjulmand appears to have had a change of heart with the decision to give players two options for completing the match.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know it\u2019s very difficult,\u201d Hjulmand said. \u201cBut looking back it was the wrong thing to make the decision between the two scenarios to the players in this case.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPlayers were in a shock condition. Players who didn\u2019t really know yet if they had lost their best friend. And they have to decide between these two things. And I have a sense that we shouldn\u2019t have played.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know it\u2019s difficult. It\u2019s just a feeling I have. Maybe we should have just gone on to the bus and gone home and let\u2019s see what the next days would have brought.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s just my feeling now, but I think it was a very, very tough decision that the players had to try to make a decision. I know it\u2019s difficult, but I have a sense that it was wrong for the players to be given this situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
