Absolutely. Illnesses and such, alright, we've got treatments for a whole lot of them. But shit like your heart suddenly stopping or a brain aneurysm, those sudden things which can literally kill you out of absolutely nothing...that stuff is scary man.

Shocking indeed.

He is full professional, probably has best care on monthly basis and this happens. Hundreds of ECGs, endurance tests and still this couldnt be prevented.

Thank God Eriksen dodged the bullet, but i think it's time to call it a career. If it happens once, chances are things could repeat or get worse are much bigger..

 Further info in 15 mins. And it is confirmed that he is stable

Doctors probably won't let him resume his career anyway. And I'm not even talking about his wife/partner.

Heart is a basically a muscle. You can't really prevent a heart attack.

I am MD. I was working in ER. 

So i have witnessed this many times.

Medically speaking, it cant be prevented but medicine can recognize subtle signs of failing heart or any other organ.

UEFA to make a decision in 15 minutes, if the match will continue, per our commentators in the studio.

I bet he had medical checks before the tournament. And you don't really expect a heart attack around age 30-ish unless there is some undisclosed condition or outside influence like steroids. My uncle who didn't smoke had a heart attack at age 34 for instance. Granted it was in the 70s.

Well, palpitations, vertigo, shortness of breath, chest pains as symptoms.

Ortostatic hypotension, ultrasound abnormalities, ECG abnormalities as signs.

Danish football federation has tweeted Eriksen is awake and is in the hospital for further checks and such.
