I'm sure the Finland win will feel very bittersweet. It seems unbelievable they would finish the game when the Denmark team must be all over the place mentally.

[Calderyon]

Apparently Eriksen himself had said to finish the game.

According to one of the Finnish players (the Goal Scorer) interview.

Congrats Cald btw. No one saw a Finland win. I know it must be bittersweet, but a great start for you guys.

[bots]

no-one knows how things are going to pan out over the next few days, so postponing it was going to be potentially difficult too. I think denmark just wanted it out the way no matter the result

[Calderyon]

Thank you.

Tbf though Hradecky was incredible and without him (and partly the sad incident) Denmark would probably have walked over our team.

Even with the incident the game was mostly played on one side of the field.

[Swan]

Tbh, Denmark looked ordinary at best before the incident. Eriksen aside, Finland deserved the win. Wonder if anyone had Hradecky in their fantasy team and captain?! Would have scored 26 points

[Calderyon]

I had Hradecky in my team, but not as captain.

Captained Lukaku.

[Calderyon]

Hradecky is the most picked goalie in the Euro Fantasy game.

Wow, i'd have never thought. Though he's really good value i guess. And showed his worth today.

[Calderyon]

Belgium v Russia 2-0 HT

34' 2-0 Meunier

[Calderyon]

I think it was mostly because of his price (4.0m)

[Swan]

Yeah cheap as chips, and had a great game today.

[Calderyon]

Yep.

I expect his selection percent to rise even higher now.

[Swan]

It will do for sure.

Belgium v Russia 3-0 at 92'

88' 3-0 Lukaku (Meunier)

I keep thinking of what we watched tonight. Never seen anything like it before. Its giving me shivers

Can I just say though that SimonKJaer the captain was an absolute hero. He stopped Erickson swallowing his tongue. He helped the team keep it together when they formed the human sheild and stared at what was happening face on and he comforted Erickson's wife. That man is a hero

Disgusting for the BBC to show it all and his wife at her worst possible moment and for UEFA forcing a broken and destroyed Denmark team to play like 90 mins after he left the pitch

Apparently the players wanted to finish the game. I've heard Eriksen himself told the players to finish. Either way it wasn't a very wise move.

From what I heard they had 2 options today or tomorrow but UEFA pushed for it to be immediately restarted

They should have opted for tomorrow. If that is the case though UEFA did Denmark dirty big time.
