Over nine months after his cardiac arrest at the European Championship, Christian Eriksen returned for Denmark with a rapid goal in a 4-2 loss in a friendly against the Netherlands in Amsterdam on Saturday.
Within two minutes after Eriksen came on as a substitute at the start of the second half, Andreas Skov Olsen pulled the ball back and Eriksen hit home for Denmark. Even the Dutch crowd in the Johan Cruijff Arena cheered and applauded for this goal of the opponent as it was scored by the 30-year-old Danish midfielder.
On June 12, 2021, Eriksen suffered a cardiac arrest during the European Championship match against Finland. The Dane got to wear an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) and was given the green light by his doctors in December to resume his football career after completing months of individual recovery.
