The Danish Football Union (DBU) said the Inter Milan player was awake and had been able to speak to teammates. "We've been in contact with him, and the players have spoken to Christian," DBU director Peter Moeller told Danmarks Radio (DR). Chants of "Christian" and "Eriksen" from both sets of supporters rang around the stadium as news of his status began to filter through to supporters. The two teams played out an uneventful final few minutes of the first half after both sets of players returned to the pitch with several Danish players in tears. Pohjanpalo stunned the crowd into silence with when he headed home Jere Uronen's cross, capitalising on Finland's one true chance of the game.
