Gregoritsch sent a message to Eriksen
The ÖFB team players Stefan Lainer and Michael Gregoritsch sent a message to the Danish soccer star Christian Eriksen, who collapsed on the pitch in Copenhagen the day before, after their goals in Austria's opening game against North Macedonia. The Salzburg and Styrians held up a T-shirt in the ÖFB design with the inscription “Eriksen stay strong” up in Bucharest when they celebrated the goal after 1-0 and 2-1 respectively.
Eriksen is in stable condition after his collapse in the game against Finland, which was interrupted for over an hour on Saturday evening due to the dramatic incident, as the Danish association announced on Sunday. After his collapse before half-time, helpers who were called immediately fought for minutes for the life of the 29-year-old professional from Inter Milan.
