Christian Eriksen made the "perfect" return to international football on Saturday night after scoring for Denmark two minutes after coming on as a substitute against the Netherlands in a friendly.
Christian Eriksen scored just over two minutes after his return to the Denmark team on Saturday following a near-fatal heart attack last year, rifling the ball home against the Netherlands to complete a stunning comeback to the national side. That the Danes lost 4-2 in the friendly in Amsterdam will be a mere footnote as international football welcomed back a player who almost died on the pitch 288 days ago, slumping to the turf at the Parken Stadium during the Euro 2020 clash with Finland. The 13,790 fans in the crowd at that June 12 match were left wondering if Eriksen would survive following his collapse, much less return to playing again for the national team. Quick work by medics saved his life that night and he had a device fitted to prevent further heart problems, which ironically ended his career with Italian club Inter Milan as Serie A does not permit players to play with such devices.
