Did anyone watch the Christian Eriksen collapse in the Denmark v Finland Euro 2020 match? First thing, glad he is alright & well but I'm appalled & disgusted that the match had to continued in the 2nd half! Surely, the best thing was for the match to be called off & give the danish players some time to process what happened to their friend & teammate. I mean, Eriksen almost died on the pitch & UEFA cannot show some compassion & do the right thing, everyone saw how upset & shocked both teams were.

I also read that if Denmark didn't play in the 2nd half, UEFA were going to threatened the team with a 3–0 loss if they refused to finish the match later on that day or the following day at noon, leaving the players with "no choice" but to continue. Totally disgusting decision from UEFA, just no thought on what the Danish players are going through!

^^I think that shows a lack of respect from UEFA. They should apologise to the Danish team and fans & I feel that to pressure them into finishing the game when they could have easily finished it 24 hours later (probably behind closed doors & without TV cameras or press allowed), when they felt ready to do so. A player nearly lost his life ffs!!

Other than that they should have left the game abandoned and say awarded 2 pts to each team in respect of the situation that arose. I hope eventually UEFA will apologise to the Danish FA and so they should.

Rafa Benitez reportedly close to becoming Everton manager.

So who's Nuno going to manage now then , this manager thing is so confusing is he going to be Crystal Palace manager again now lol.

Probably will be shock replacement at Tottenham if Spurs don't get Poch think Nuno will shake things up a bit at Spurs or maybe even Arsenal!!
