Dramáticas escenas se vivieron hoy en el partido entre Dinamarca y Finlandia en la Euro 2020, luego de que el mediocampista Christian Eriksen colapsara dentro del campo. El jugador, perteneciente a los registros del Inter de Milán, se desplomó en el minuto 42 del primer tiempo, tras recibir un lateral. Sus compañeros rápidamente llamaron por asistencia y lo rodearon mientras se le practicaban maniobras de resucitación. 

The Denmark-Finland match screeched to a terrifying halt on Saturday as Danish star Christian Eriksen collapsed to the pitch, eyes agape just before halftime. The Inter Milan playmaker’s teammates immediately surrounded him to block views as chest compressions were performed, with players and fans alike visibly shaken.

UEFA announced the suspension of the match shortly before Eriksen was carried off the field, white sheets obscuring the view of Eriksen on a medical stretcher. The score was 0-0, but soccer was secondary.

BAKU — Striker Kieffer Moore headed in an equaliser from one of Wales' few chances as the surprise 2016 semifinalists snatched a 1-1 draw against wasteful Switzerland in their European Championship Group A clash at the Baku Olympic Stadium on Saturday.

Moore, who had a first half opportunity expertly saved by Swiss goalkeeper Yann Sommer, guided the ball into the net on 74 minutes from a Joe Morrell delivery as he ghosted into space left by the static Swiss defence.

Italy, nominally, was the away team for its Euro 2020 opener on Friday. Though the match was played in Stadio Olimpico in Rome, Turkey was designated the home team. In reality, it was a home game for Azzurri, and one to celebrate as major international soccer returned after a year’s delay because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

KYIV — Ukraine has agreed to modify the design of its national soccer team kit to cover up the slogan "glory to the heroes" after it was banned by UEFA, the head of the Ukrainian soccer association said on Friday.

Soccer's European Championship kicks off on Friday with the 24 teams' battle for glory accompanied by off-field conflict over the anti-racism gesture of "taking the knee".

England were booed by some of their fans in two friendlies while Ireland were jeered in Hungary for kneeling before kickoff in a move borrowed from American NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick and popularised by the Black Lives Matter movement.
