Christian Eriksen Gives Health Update Following Collapse in Denmark Game

Danish midfielder Christian Eriksen gave a positive update on his health Monday, following his on-field collapse in an international friendly against Ukraine at the Odense Isstadion, Denmark.

Eriksen was able to walk off the pitch by himself, though, only “briefly unconscious,” according to Danish team doctor Morten Boesen, before taken to the hospital for testing.
