Danish Soccer Star Loses Consciousness on the Pitch

Shafaqna Sports: The Danish Football Federation said in a social media post that Danish soccer player Christian Eriksen collapsed on the pitch during a match against Ukraine on Sunday(7 Jun 2026) but was conscious.

“Christian Eriksen is conscious and is doing well under the circumstances,” the federation said in a statement on X, adding that the friendly match had been canceled.
