Christian Eriksen opens up on "wonderful feeling" of football return on Brentford debut

Christian Eriksen has opened up on the "wonderful moment" when he made his return to competitive football, eight months after suffering a heart attack on international duty.

The Danish international came off the bench for Brentford in their 2-0 Premier League defeat to Newcastle United, replacing compatriot Mathias Jensen early in the second half.

While the result didn't go the Bees' way, those watching were delighted to see the 30-year-old back in action after periods when it looked like he might never return to top-level football.
