Sports cardinal: Eriksen may stop playing soccer

Inter Milan football player fell to the ground unconscious during a match between Denmark and Finland at Parken Stadium in Copenhagen shortly before the end of the first leg. The 29-year-old ex-Playmaker of the Spurs was treated in the field before being taken to the hospital. The match was suspended and continued at 20:30.

It's still unclear what caused Eriksen's alivation.

Denmark's Football Federation has confirmed that Ericksen is up in the hospital and his condition is stable.

Sanjay Sharma, professor of sports cardiology at London's St Georgez University, said something went terribly wrong. Professor Sharma worked with Ericksen during the time that the Danish was part of Tottenham.

“The doctors managed to get it back, but the question is what happened, and why did it happen? Eriksen underwent normal tests from 2019, so how did you clarify the cardiac attack?

Ericksen's wake was a fine sign.

I'm very happy. The fact that he's stable and awake, everything will be fine” he said.

But, Sharma questions whether Eriksen can play professional football anymore.

I don't know if he'll play soccer anymore. Without being blunt, he died today, though for a few minutes, but would he die and allow the medical professional to die again? The answer is no” Sharma said.

Prof Sharma added it would be in the hands of the player and club to assess the risks of continuing career.

The good news is that he's gonna live, the bad news is he's coming to the end of his career, so would he play another professional football game, it's something I can't say. In the United Kingdom he wouldn't play. We would be very strict about this”. The professor of sports cardiology concluded.
