Christian Eriksen Scores, Captains Denmark in First Game at Site of Cardiac Arrest

Ever since Christian Eriksen embarked on his comeback, he has seemed to outdo his most recent incredible feat. And on Tuesday in Copenhagen, he did it again.

In his first game at Parken Stadium, the site of his horrifying collapse last June, Eriksen not only led the Denmark team out as captain, but he scored his second goal in as many games for the national team.

In the 57th minute of a friendly against Serbia, Eriksen took a pass at the edge of the area and took two touches before ripping a shot into the bottom corner.
