Is he dead?
Too many groups
All those shit teams
England
VAR
Taz's predictions
Nothing. International tournaments are the best.
Is he dead?
I'm a twit
Yeah, this is pretty rough.
I erm ... don't think this match is restarting.
I thought he looked like he was having a fit at first. Seemed to be shaking.
I can’t believe they’re showing Live Photo’s of this
Fuck.
Who was keeping the footage going all that time, Daniel Levy? Weirdos.
The beeb are going to get a fuck tonne of complaints for showing all that. I know they don't control the footage but they could have cut to the studio at any time.
Well that's the day ruined.
They should have cut the studio way sooner.
I hoped it might have been epilepsy or something, but when they started CPR... Fuck.
The awkward studio banter was almost as bad as probably watching a man die.
Muamba had cardiac arrest for 78 minutes, so if they keep shocking him there's still a chance, but I doubt he ever plays again even if he makes it.
My searches for "christian eriksen" "denmark finland" all get blocked on Twitter ("Something went wrong, try reloading.") Anyone else?
I guess they were hoping he'd be stretchered off into an ambulance. Muamba was in the tunnel within minutes.
Yeah, the medical team looked a bit slow. 4 boys holding a stretcher doing nothing for the first minute or 2
"I was texting my mum telling her I love her."
You're not dying, Pet.
Their best/biggest hospital is literally 500 metres from the stadium, almost feels inefficient to get an ambulance around.
Left the pitch stable and alive

Is that a legit pic?
Fucking hell. That was scary. Glad he's pulled through if the photo is right.
I'm sure it's legit. Still doesn't necessarily mean he's okay.
It’s the Denmark kit from today and there’s a Finnish flag behind him so must be
I mean like, his eyes were open when he collapsed too. I just dont want to celebrate yet
He’s practically sat up, with his hands on his head.
And Bein sport are reporting he’s okay.
I'm a twit
Yeah the image is from Getty so it’s legit.
Do they play the match now if he’s confirmed stable?
No way.
I'm a twit
3-0 Finland it is then.
They will probably agree to end the match as a 0-0 and move on. The main thing is, he's alive.
Looks like me on a Monday morning hearing my alarm before work full of the fear after a weekend of binge drinking.
Denmark definitely making the finals now.
Medics donned it.
I'm not sure how you get back to playing football for a few days after that though. He looked 100% dead and they've been stood making a human shield around the body for 10 minutes. You don't just go back to focusing on an offside trap.
Wasn't there one of these cases where the guy was revived and then the guy died 2 days later? The Spanish one?
Edit: Puerta. But sounds like he wasn't actually "revived" so much as stumbling to the dressing room before keeling over completely.
He'll never play again. I also don't know how Kasper Schmeichel isn't a broken man.
EDIT: Antonio Puerta died 3 days after collapsing.
Someone page Magic, supposedly he was vaccinated yesterday.
Fairly okay to their captain securing his neck before the medial team got there and starting the CPR and consoling Eriksen’s missus. Some boy
That was meant to say ‘fair play’ but apparently predictive text is a cunt
On a sidenote, the other day was the first time I noticed defibrillators being set up in old phone boxes.
Lots of ace actions around it all tbh. Taylor recognizing what was happening as quickly as he did, Delaney getting the team together to block the view, Schmeichel with the missus.
