Denmark's Christian Eriksen collapses, receives CPR as Euro 2020 game with Finland suspended

Denmark's Euro 2020 Group B game with Finland was suspended just before half-time after Christian Eriksen collapsed on the field as he went to take a throw-in.

Eriksen was walking towards the sideline and was clearly struggling to make his way across. As the ball was thrown in his direction, it hit him and he fell to the ground. Teammates Martin Braithwaite and Thomas Delaney rushed to assist him, with Delaney beckoning furiously for medical assistance.

Medics ran on to the field to help the Inter Milan midfielder as he lay stricken on the ground with his Denmark teammates in clear distress.
