The Denmark national team have been shortlisted for FIFA's Fair Play Award for their response to Christian Eriksen's cardiac arrest at Euro 2020.
The former Tottenham midfielder went into cardiac arrest and collapsed shortly before half-time in Denmark's opening game of the tournament against Finland in the summer.
Danish team doctor Morten Boesen later revealed the Inter Milan star was ‘gone’ before he was revived using CPR and a single defibrillator shock on the pitch, as distraught team-mates formed a protective ring around medics treating Eriksen.
