CHRISTIAN ERIKSEN’s magical night with Denmark was ruined late on by a Slovenian scream from Erik Janza.
The 32-year-old Manchester United playmaker collapsed on the pitch after suffering cardiac arrest during Denmark’s group match against Finland three years ago.

The Danish captain received life-saving treatment on the pitch, eventually being resuscitated and taken to hospital.
He made a remarkable return to football with Brentford the following year before joining United.
And now he was back with a bang at the Euros as he looked to have scored the only goal of the game.
However, the game ended in disappointment for him and the Danes as Slovenia earned themselves a point thanks to a cracker from Janza.
