Players and fans from Denmark and Belgium showed support for Christian Eriksen during an emotional minute’s applause after halting their European Championship group game.

Referee Bjorn Kuipers stopped play in the 10th minute after Yussuf Poulsen had given Denmark an early lead.

Eriksen is recovering in hospital after he suffered cardiac arrest in the same stadium during Denmark’s opening loss to Finland in Copenhagen on Saturday.

He wears Denmark’s number 10 shirt.

Kevin de Bruyne inspired Belgium to a comeback victory that secured their place in the last 16.

“The only thing I’m disappointed by is the result, I didn’t expect much from this game, but I can’t describe the pride I feel about this squad,” said Denmark coach Kasper Hjulmand.
