Despite knocking repeatedly on the door in the second half that saw Tunisia rushing back to their own defence, Denmark hit back in sizeable proportions, thanks to their returning captain, the Manchester United midfielder, Christian Eriksen.

Even albeit the Danes failing to hit the right chord, Christian Eriksen was everywhere in the contest, creating opportunities, and the kind of domination that was stitched together by the skipper for Denmark probably had a lot of unstated emotions written on them in the boldest of letters.

Eriksen slumped down to a cardiac arrest in their Euro 2020 opener, leaving the world in shock and grief. There were a lot of questions about whether he will ever be able to return to the field or not. However, the Danish captain didn’t just return but also delivered in absolutely bedazzling fashion to send the crowd going crazy in ecstasy.

There were a lot of chances created from the corners and Christian Eriksen pulled the strings handsomely, curling in the efforts, most of them goalbound that was either denied by the custodian or lady luck simply didn’t smile on them.

Eriksen pressed hard from both the wings, kept on dashing hard enough through the central channel as well but lack of support from his fellow teammates didn’t really allow him to get the numbers in his favour.

Here is what Twitter had to say about Christian Eriksen

There was also a possible penalty build up towards the dying embers of the contest where the ball bobbled off a defender’s hand from a Eriksen cross. However, the referee turned down the opportunity post consulting with VAR as the game eventually rolled down to a draw. Twitter was absolutely amazed to welcome back Christian Eriksen to one of the grandest stages of all time where football comes alive.
