Denmark midfielder Christian Eriksen has left the pitch conscious and in a stable condition after collapsing during the match against Finland on Saturday. He has now been transferred to a local hospital in Copenhagen.
It was just before half-time when Eriksen collapsed with no-one around him.
Immediately the players and match officials knew something was wrong and called for medical assistance.
