Pata Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 First 60 minutes were alright but really disappointed with the last 30, just gutless and we seemed happy to lose 1-0. Subs looked like they had already ran a marathon before coming on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Denmark's Christian Eriksen will be fitted with a heart-starting device following his collapse on the pitch during Euro 2020. The 29-year-old midfielder suffered cardiac arrest in his side's defeat by Finland in Copenhagen on Saturday. The ICD - implantable cardioverter defibrillator - is "necessary due to rhythm disturbances", Danish team doctor Morten Boesen said. Eriksen remains in hospital but says he is "fine under the circumstances". The British Heart Foundation describes an ICD as a small device which is placed under the skin, is connected to the heart with "thin wires" and "sends electrical pulses to regulate abnormal heart rhythms". Boesen added: "Christian has accepted the solution and the plan has moreover been confirmed by specialists nationally and internationally who all recommend the same treatment. "We encourage everybody to give Christian and his family peace and privacy." Former Spurs player Eriksen, who is now at Inter Milan, collapsed shortly before half-time against Finland and needed to be resuscitated with a defibrillator. German doctor Jens Kleinfeld, who treated him on the field, told Funke media group: "About 30 seconds later, he opened his eyes and I could talk to him directly. "That was a very moving moment, because in such medical emergencies in everyday life, the chances of success are much lower." Kleinefeld said he asked Eriksen, "Well, are you back with us?" The doctor said Eriksen answered, "Yes, I am back with you" and, "Damn, I'm only 29 years old". Kleinefeld added: "That's when I knew the brain wasn't damaged and he had fully returned." Denmark's next game is against Belgium on Thursday (17:00 BST) when they return to the Parken Stadium, which was the scene of Eriksen's collapse. Belgium intend to kick the ball out of play in the 10th minute to take part in a minute's applause for Eriksen, with Danish fans planning the gesture as a show of support. 'You can see the wires in my chest' Former England cricketer James Taylor, 31, was fitted with an ICD after heart issues ended his career in 2016. He told the BBC Sport Desk podcast, which is out on Friday, about what Eriksen can expect. "It's a defibrillator that's fitted inside me," said Taylor. "The way I can describe it is it's half the size of your mobile phone and a little bit thicker in my chest and has two wires attached to it. Those wires are screwed into the bottom of your heart. "I was really reluctant to have it initially, but once I had a greater understanding of my condition and how it's going to help me, it's my best friend. "If something goes wrong, it looks after me hopefully. Very often when you have major heart surgery, it's to correct something or make something better. This was not to correct anything; this was a safety net if something goes wrong. "I opted to have it fitted under my pectoral muscle, so you can't see it but you can see the wires in my chest - if you wanted to. "Some have them on top of the pectoral muscle, so you can see it, but I opted to have it under the muscle so you can't really see it. If I showed you, you would be able to see it. "One of the big things, I would say [to Eriksen], is to talk to people that you trust and also open up to people that have had a similar experience just so you learn and have an understanding of the situation, because nobody really knows."

Unbelievable Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Daly Blind has an ICD as well and it allows him to continue to play professional football. Hopefully the same will be true for Eriksen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I was unfortunate enough to watch it and that was intense enough on TV with limited view, but imagine being on the ground and going through these thoughts and emotions over a handful of minutes. Must be like get hitting by a truck. Respect all round. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck sake. Why do people in football intend to turn everything so weird all of the time? It’s a competitive match ffs. Have an applause before the game, put a t-shirt on or something.
