Christian Eriksen scored a brilliant goal as he made a triumphant return to the Parken Stadium where he almost died of a cardiac arrest last June, netting Denmark’s third in a 3-0 friendly win over Serbia on Tuesday.

Eriksen, who scored with his first touch after coming on as a substitute in the 4-2 friendly defeat against the Netherlands in Amsterdam on Saturday, was guaranteed a warm welcome at the stadium that fell into shocked silence when he collapsed in the Euro 2020 group game against Finland.
