Danish star Christian Eriksen collapsed on the pitch during Denmark’s Group B Euro 2020 match against Finland.
The Inter Milan midfielder stumbled forward in the 43rd minute and then fell to the turf as Thomas Delaney looked to throw the ball towards him to restart play.
English referee Anthony Taylor, alongside Danish players Delaney and Martin Braithwaite, among others, immediately waived towards the medical team to rush onto the pitch to assist the 29-year-old.
Eriksen was quickly given CPR by medics, with both sets of players looking on with great concern.
The match at the Parken Stadium in Copenhagen was soon postponed.
And Taylor signalled to the players to return to the dressing rooms as medical attention continued on the pitch.
Simon Kjaer and Kasper Schmeichel could be seen consoling Eriksen’s partner on the side of the pitch.
Uefa has confirmed the game has been “suspended”, a tweet read: “The Uefa Euro 2020 match in Copenhagen has been suspended due to a medical emergency.”
Eriksen’s former club Tottenham wrote on Twitter: “All of our thoughts are with Christian Eriksen and his family.”
