Brentford Star Christian Eriksen Returns To Football After Heart Attack

Christian Eriksen played an hour in a closed-doors friendly against a Southend United XI on Monday, his first match since suffering cardiac arrest.
Ex-Spurs midfielder Eriksen created a goal in Brentford’s 3-2 victory.

The Denmark international, who turned 30 today, joined Brentford last month after being released by Inter Milan.

Last week, Eriksen told BBC Sport it feels like a miracle to be able to resume his career after collapsing while playing at Euro 2020 last summer.

Eriksen is building up his match fitness and the outing against the Southend side is seen by Brentford manager Thomas Frank as a crucial part of that.
