Hareide: Everyone in Denmark - in fact the whole world - loves Christian Eriksen

Former Denmark coach Åge Hareide was happy seeing Brentford midfielder Christian Eriksen feature against Serbia.

The Norwegian coach explains that it is a special day for him to come to the Parken due to Eriksen making a comeback.

He said, "This is a true HC Andersen story. That's it. So I was sitting in a TV studio up in Norway with NRK, when he fell over, and I just had to go home. Of course I got an SMS on the way out that he was awake, but it was really hard.

"So it's really great that he's back and I've talked to him on the phone.

"Everyone in Denmark - in fact the whole world - loves Christian Eriksen."
