I’m surprised they cut back to show the CPR. Felt somewhat gratuitous. Let’s hope they can revive him.

Not sure whether to take it as a positive or not that they’ve moved him, seem to remember they worked on Fabrice Muamba for about half an hour on the pitch, was watching that game too. frown
As they weren't working on him when carrying him off i'd be leaning towards bad news but hopefully it's not the case and they have better medical equipment off the pitch.

That was awful to watch, I'm not a Spurs or Inter fan but I loved what Cristian Eriksson did as a footballer. To watch that in real time was just awful. My heart goes out to his family

Looks like a seizure or something, there's a photo on twitter of him on the stretcher with an oxygen mask on, he's awake and holding his hand to his forehead, it's on my kids twitter so can't post a link.

Just seen the footage, horrible.

Agreed that the BBC should have cut away once the compressions started. Quite surprised Pierce didn’t say something about “we don’t need to see this, back to the studio” He’s not normally backward in coming forward with his views.

I see the Beeb have now come out of the coverage entirely now.

If it was good news you’d expect them to stop surely? You dont give CPR to someone who has a heart beat.

Think positive. If they moved him in the first ten or so minutes it’s because his heart was working…..? Hopefully…..?

No way they would have called him deceased in those few minutes.

Muamba had a heart surgeon rush to his aid from the crowd as well didn’t he….? And a helicopter I think……

Think positive. Just hope and hope this isn’t the tragedy it appears at the moment.

Well if they're not carrying him off with a blanket over his head, he's still alive at least. Guessing they got him stable enough to be moved to where he can get better treatment.

That was absolutely awful.

Thoughts with Eriksen foremost but I can't understand why the coverage didn't cut away, why it showed some of the stuff it did, and why the BBC didn't cut back to the studio sooner.

But I'm saying that as someone who has an OFF button their TV and didn't use it frown

As much as I don't want to speculate too much there's stuff on Twitter that hopefully looks a bit more positive than what was on TV and apparently the stadium is very close to Copenhagen's main hospital.

Awful.

Yes, but there was no look of relief on the player's faces.

"A Reuters colleague saw Eriksen raise his hand as the stretcher was rolled off the field. We live in hope. "

Fingers crossed.
