(Reuters) - Finland striker Teemu Pukki said their Euro 2020 opener against Denmark on Saturday was one of the most difficult games of his career after Danish midfielder Christian Eriksen collapsed and required emergency medical treatment on the pitch. Inter Milan playmaker Eriksen collapsed suddenly in the 42nd minute of the match while running near the left touchline after a Denmark throw-in and was given life-saving cardiac massage treatment and taken to hospital. "I must say it's been definitely one of the most difficult games of my career. The atmosphere after the game is definitely not as glorious as usual but we got important three points." "Our thoughts are with Christian Eriksen and his loved ones during these difficult times," Sparv tweeted.
