Christian Eriksen's Health Update After Collapse During Match

Christian Eriksen is awake and doing well after falling down during a friendly match against Ukraine. The Danish Football Association said he is in the hospital for more checks. Eriksen held his chest and fell before his teammates and medical staff helped him. He was taken to the hospital in an ambulance, but he is okay.

This incident happened five years after Eriksen had a heart problem during a match against Finland. His heart stopped for about five minutes, and he got treatment on the field. After that, he got a special device to help his heart beat normally, which allowed him to play football again.

The Danish Football Association said, 'Christian Eriksen is awake and doing well. The match has been stopped.'

The team doctor said, 'Christian Eriksen is doing well and walked off the field by himself. His heart device worked as it should. He was unconscious for a short time but woke up quickly.'

Eriksen will have more tests at the hospital to find out what happened. The doctors are talking to him, and he is doing well. He asked the doctor to tell the players he is okay.

The manager said, 'The most important thing is that Christian Eriksen is doing well.' He left the field and said hello to the players, but it was still a scary experience.

Eriksen fell down in the 65th minute and lay on the field for a few minutes. Then, he got up and walked to the ambulance. The fans from both teams clapped and cheered for him.

A former teammate of Eriksen's, Nicklas Bendtner, was very upset while talking on TV. He said, 'These pictures are horrible, and they make the rest of the evening not important.'

Bendtner said, 'I am thinking of Christian's family and kids, and this is a tough situation. It's the second time this has happened, and as his friend, it's very sad.'

The match was stopped in the 70th minute with Denmark winning 2-1. Eriksen had started the match, and his team was winning with goals from two players before the other team scored.

Denmark had drawn 0-0 with another team earlier in the week and won't play again until September after not qualifying for the World Cup.

After his heart problem, Eriksen played for Brentford and then Manchester United. He left Manchester United to join a German team called Wolfsburg last summer.

Wolfsburg was relegated after being in the top league for 29 years. They lost a playoff match, which made them move to a lower league.
