Fecking horrible, don't even know how this happens. My heart his breaking for his family and friends who are watching this. I really hope they aren't at the stadium.

This isn’t looking good at all. Was it a heart attack?
It almost seemed too sudden for that. Usually the person experiences pain before a heart attack right. Here he just went unconscious instantly. A brain aneurysm or something. Can’t imagine what the family would feel like seeing that. First time I’ve cried in a footy game.

I’m not even emotionally involved in this match personally but I’m shaking here, heart pounding and all. I pray we have good news at the end of this. I’m uncomfortably with the way they keep showing the Danish players, it’s distressing. I have to switch this off.
Yep. This game, or tourney in some respects, don’t mean anything. But this is just horrific to watch as a human being, nevermind football or sport.

This long without an ambulance cannot be good news, surely?

Devastated.

Listening on the radio. Commentator thought he was just winded. No contact at all.

All the tournament have to be canceled
It probably should be but won't. Was a disgrace Cameroon had to play the final all those years ago after what happened to Foe.

Horrible for Denmark, their most iconic player since Laudrups and Schmeichel not that it matters given it's a human life.

Turned this off! My heart's and prayers go out to Christan, tragic stuff and I pray for the best!

BBC are an absolute shambles and should be ashamed of themselves! The second it became clear something was wrong they should have stopped panning towards it! Horrific scenes!
May not be their footage but could’ve cut to the studio or something

It looks like he was losing it a few seconds before collapsing. His arms just dropped to his side and looked like jelly.

Why the hell don't they cut to the studio, or just black screen with commentary over it. Don't even show the fans. Absolute classless :(

Distressing scenes. It’s the part they started giving CPR which has made me switch off the tv.

His body trembling as they are trying to resuscitate him is going to give me nightmares.

That's this tournament done for. No chance of the mood picking up after this.
