Euro 2020

Also, don't go on social media, it's already flooding with his collapse.

[AwkwardSquirtle]

Yeah, this is tragic. Hope that he recovers. As they're saying, Muamba recovered from a similar incident. Hoping that this is like that.

[Pann]

I hope Erikson will be ok.

[Jessicka]

They should turn the cameras off which are on the pitch and go to the studio. At least stop focusing on what was going on, the public didn't need to see the CPR efforts or distraught players and his wife.

Agree. On the plus side, getting all that there so fast does improve chances, by a lot. We can but hope it is enough.

[Kallisto]

The hospital too is less than half a KM away which will also help the situation.

[DrMcNinja]

I hope Erikson will be ok.

There are a few hopeful words on the streets. So I hope that a reputable source can confirm something.

[thilicen]

Can't believe they filmed all of that. Even caught his girlfriend being held by Schmiechel at the edge of the pitch. Really hope he gets through this.

[Northern Goblin]

There's a photo of him showing to be conscious as he was stretchered off the pitch. Obviously we know very little and there's a long way to go for any real recovery, but for now, he's alive.

There's a picture on twitter showing that he seems to be conscious as he's being taken out of the stadium. I really hope that this is a sign of good news.

[Adramalech]

Watching on TV, a still picture of when they were taking him away. He seems to be awake. Really hope so, that's a step in the right direction.

[DrMcNinja]

Just saw the photo on TV. He was conscious and at least held his hands up.

Really don't wish the same thing that happened to Nouri to happen to him, or anyone else.

[Makabreska]

Cardiac arrest according to Danish TV. Statement at 19:45.

[Acidbaron]

Class of the team mates trying to cover up as much as possible while care was being given.

Makes you fear for the worst in 2022 in Qatar of all places.

Game between Russia and Belgium might be impacted by this, maybe delayed for a bit.

[Adramalech]

Confirmed that he is stable now. Listening to this on portuguese TV, sorry I don't have a source handy :\

[Pann]

UEFA say he is in hospital and stabilised - with luck this means he will make a full recovery.

Good to hear if true.

That is amazing news. I really thought the worst and the images shown on TV with the resuscitation were shocking.

Thanks to all that helped him and I hope he will make a full recovery.

[Jessicka]

AEDs are fucking magic, and everyone should learn how to use one and where the nearest one is.

[AwkwardSquirtle]

Can't believe they filmed all of that. Even caught his girlfriend being held by Schmiechel at the edge of the pitch. Really hope he gets through this.

Clearly wasn't the right decision, but at the same time I'm trying to remember that it's just as traumatic for whoever's in charge of the match footage. Sometimes when you panic you just default to what you'd normally do. Nobody teaches you how to deal with a player potentially dying in front of you when you're filming a game.

[Kallisto]

Awake and stable. Best fucking news all day.
