SCOTTISH football fans are today waving flags showing their support for Denmark midfielder Christian Eriksen.

The 29-year-old is recovering in hospital after collapsing in the Euro 2020 match against Finland at the weekend.

At the Scotland versus Czech Republic match this afternoon, Scottish fans held a large Saltire above their heads which declared "Eriksen the Brave" and "Scotland loves Denmark".

BBC's Match of the Day tweeted the picture of the flag noting: "Class message of support from the #SCO fans."

The game on Saturday in Copenhagen was suspended before half-time after the former Spurs player fell to the ground and was given emergency treatment on the field.

Finland won the Group B match 1-0 after it restarted 7.30pm.

Danish players were applauded on to the pitch by their opponents as they returned to the field to resume the game.

Uefa said it agreed to restart the match "following the request made by players of both teams".

The final five minutes of the first half were played, before a five-minute half-time break and the second half.

The BBC had to issue an apology after broadcasting images of Eriksen receiving treatment after collapsing on the pitch.

Eriksen is expected to make a good recovery but may be unable to return to competitive footfall.
