    That's the end of the toughest live text commentary I've ever had to do - probably the most draining evening of my career.

    Thanks for joining us today.

    Our thoughts are with Christian Eriksen after that serious medical incident tonight. We haven't had any updates since hearing he was awake and stable a couple of hours ago.

    The Belgium v Russia live text is still rolling - and if there are any more updates on Eriksen we'll let you know there.

    Talk soon. Stay safe.

  2. 'A group of players I can't praise enough'published at 21:23 British Summer Time 12 June 2021

    More from Denmark head coach Kasper Hjulmand: "First of all, if it gets emotional, it's been a tough night. We are all reminded of what the most important thing in life is - to have valuable relationships, people we're close to, our family and our friends.

    "We have a group of players that I cannot praise enough. I couldn't be prouder of those people who took such good care of each other. He is one of my very dear friends, the way the players talked in the dressing room to decide to not do anything before we knew Christian was conscious and OK.

    "We had two options to play the game [today] or tomorrow at 12pm and everyone agreed to play today. You can't play a game with such feelings. We tried to win. It was incredible they managed to go out and try to play the second half.

    鈥淗onestly, there were players out there that were completely done. Emotionally done and emotionally exhausted.鈥

    Goalscorer Joel Pohjanpalo told Finnish broadcaster YLE: "Of course it was hard for us to go to the pitch, and I can only imagine how hard it was for Denmark. A great victory for us, but the foremost thing on our minds is Christian鈥檚 condition."

    Finland manager Markku Kanerva speaking after his side's victory over Denmark: "It was a very emotional night for us.

    "First time in a major tournament and an opening game against Denmark in their home stadium. When we heard the national anthems, it was very emotional for us.

    It was obviously such a difficult night for Denmark, who showed great mental strength to finish the game.

    They had 22 shots to Finland's one.

    Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg's penalty summed up their game.
