Eriksen comments on return to World Cup after heart attack on pitch

Denmark’s star player, Christian Eriksen, comments on his return to major international competition after on-field heart attack

Close to his World Cup debut, the Danish midfielder Christian Eriksen spoke about the expectation of the campaign in the championship and about his return to a big competition after his heart attack in the Eurocopa. The player spoke about the way that people see it differently.

🇧🇷I’m the same guy. I think people look at me differently, with a different perspective, different eyes. It’s special to be back here with the national team. Many things happened in this period. The World Cup is an important moment and it became a goal when I found out I was going to play again. It’s important to feel alive, to feel with my family, and to be back in the Danish team🇧🇷

In addition, the number 10 also commented on the expectations of the Danish campaign in the World Cup. With a good generation and good results in recent years, the player said he has a positive feeling. The team arrives in its group with high expectations of qualifying for the round of 16.

🇧🇷I think we were always strong and believed in our football, but they started to trust more in front after everything that happened in the Euro. It’s a positive feeling of a change of perspective, especially on the part of the fans and the media.”, completed the main player of the European team.
