Hello and welcome to bbc news. We begin with Cup And Hague in this hour with breaking and developing news over the last hour or so, during the first half of the match between Finland And Copenhagen in the danish capital, Christian Eriksen, One of The Star players of the natiOnal team, suddenly collapsed On the pitch. He fell face down, was not moving. His fellow players went to his aid and called for medical assistance and then formed as shield around him as he lay On the ground and receive treatment which we understand included cpr. There was, for some time, no word On his cOnditiOn, but the good news, within the last few minutes, the natiOnal team announced he is in a stable cOnditiOn in hospital and he has regained cOnsciousness. This all took place between the Opening Match between Denmark And Finland in copenhagen which has now been suspended. Clearly there will be no further play tOnight. The bbc has been hearing from danish supporters of tottenham hotspur, the team he played for for seven years in england. In a message, a spokesman of a Fan Group said they were offering hopes and prayers for ericssOns health. Another member told bbc news, we are all in shock in the stadium and the feeling is quite odd. We can we Wa Nt we want to spend our best wishes, so hard to see the scenes and we are very emotiOnal right now and perhaps One of the most poignant tweets was from Fabrice Muamba, the On-player'>BoltOn Player who collapsed back in 2012 and who actually had his heart stopped for many, many minutes. He thankfully made a full recovery and when news of Christian Eriksen� s collapsed, he tweeted just two words, please god. We can speak On the line with a Board Member of White Hart danes, the Supporters Group for tottenham hotspur. It is particular good to speak to you having had the encouraging news that Christian Eriksen has stabilised in hospital. Let me ask you about that first. I know it is early days, but you must be mightily relieved. Yes. You must be mightily relieved. Yes, i am in the you must be mightily relieved. Yes, i am in the stadium you must be mightily relieved. Yes, i am in the Stadium Right you must be mightily relieved. Yes i am in the Stadium Right now and then use that christian is stable is amazing news. It isjust then use that christian is stable is amazing news. It is just a heartbreaking feeling at the Moment at the stadium, we do not know what to expect. The match is suspended at the Moment and we do not know if it is going to cOntinue or not. Yeah, itsjust a is going to cOntinue or not. Yeah, its just a terrible feeling. I do not know what to say.

Perhaps you can describe to us from where you | can describe to us from where you were sitting On what you are seeing both On the pitch and On the screens, what appeared to happen . Yeah, i am screens, what appeared to happen . Yeah, iam here screens, what appeared to happen . Yeah, i am here at the stadium and i am aware that Christian Eriksen got am aware that Christian Eriksen got a ball and then hejust am aware that Christian Eriksen got a ball and then he just fell down On the pitch and then the game just stopped and the whole team went silent and we have not heard anything until now and we are waiting to hear the news that he is stable, and we are relieved. I saw his wife going Onto the pitch and she was heartbroken. All the danish people are heartbroken at the Moment. It was very striking watching the pictures from here in lOndOn. As you say, not Only the sound because, of course, the stadium fell almost silent as people stood around waiting to see what exactly was happening. You could see the faces both of the players and the officials and, i should say, the players of both teams and the fans because many of you found, i do not know if you are, but many of your fellow fans in the stadium were wearing Red And White painted On their faces, wearing Red And White painted On theirfaces, the natiOnal colours, with the comic helmets and all the rest of it and everyOne in a Party Mood and suddenly you could see from peoples faces quite how serious this was looking. It peoples faces quite how serious this was looking. This was looking. It was very serious this was looking. It was very serious. All this was looking. It was very serious. All the this was looking. It was very serious. All the people this was looking. It was very serious. All the people were this was looking. It was very serious. All the people were very frightened and something had just happened. Its feeling like a funeral at the Moment. We do not know what to expect, if the match is going to cOntinue or not. This is a high Profile Player in denmark and a natiOnal player, we have him as a symbol of the natiOnal team, so at the Moment, It Isjust quiet symbol of the natiOnal team, so at the Moment, it is just quiet and we need to wait and what happens. Indeed, as you say, we need to wait and see. At least the initial news out of the hospital is positive. Thomas, thank you for speaking to us. It is worth mentiOning something that the stockholm based Onnor'>Journalist Philip 0cOnnor tweeted earlier. Just to capture the mood in the Parking Stadium after Christian Eriksen collapsed, he said Finish Fans were Chancing Christian and Danish Fans chanted ericssOn back. EveryOnes faults with the young man receiving medical treatment. We can speak to someOne who knows directly what this awful experience is like. You will remember the name, a cardiologist absent Bart Centre in lOndOn who, by a complete Moment of happy good fortune was in the stadium watching when the footballer Fabrice Muamba collapsed, the On-player'>BoltOn Player, back in 2012. Doctor, thank you very much for being with us On bbc news. I cannot imagine what you were thinking when you heard about this. ~ ,. , , this. Thank you. The first thing is to say that this. Thank you.

The first thing is to say that all our thoughts go i this. Thank you. The first thing is l to say that all our thoughts go out to say that all our thoughts go out to Christian Eriksen� s family and friends and to the entirety of the football world. I should correct you On One thing, i was not at the tottenham game, but i was One of the doctors that looked after for greece in hospital.

Forgive me, someOne had pointed out to me in hospital. Forgive me, someOne had pointed out to me that in hospital. Forgive me, someOne had pointed out to me that a pointed out to me that a cardiologist happen to be in the stadium away to his aid initially and presumably that is the key thing, the initial reactiOn is critical to the chances of somebody who collapses in the circumstances surviving. Who collapses in the circumstances survivinu. , who collapses in the circumstances survivin. ,. , surviving. That is critically important surviving. That is critically important. The surviving. That is critically. Important. The assumptiOn surviving. That is critically important. The assumptiOn at the Moment, and i do not have any informatiOn that you do not have, is that he has had a cardiac arrest and essentially that is a Cardiac Arrhythmia which effectively results in the heart stopping pumping and the immediate respOnse to that is cpr to manually, if you like, compress the chest so there is some circulatiOn going around the body and then to defibrillator, so there is essentially to reboot the cart by providing electric shocks across the heart and it looks as though that has happened and the initial reports are that that has been successful. We were reporting a few minutes ago that the match had been suspended and we are now hearing from the stadium that it will restart in 20 minutes from now, so effectively, they will play The End of the first half and then pick up the secOnd half. Leaving that verbal pointer side, which is obvious the assay that people are feeling a lot more hopeful than they were a short time ago, can you give us some sense of how unusual or not this is for a fit, apparently healthy man in his Late 20s who is a professiOnal sportsman to suffer a cardiac arrest of this kind . Because it looks very dramatic. He hit the Ground Face down and he did not move afterwards. It was a shocking thing to see, but is it really so uncommOn . Yes. Is it really so uncommOn .

Yes, fortunately, these things are i is it really so uncommOn . 1a fortunately, these things are rare. There are incredible catastrophes that have ramificatiOns that really affect communities around them. We think about 500 young individuals a year will have a sudden cardiac arrest. These situatiOns can often include sporting activities when it happens. What happened to Christian Eriksen and what happened to Fabrice Muamba and number of other high profile athletes is rare but it does happen and because it can happen, many Ons'>Sporting InstitutiOns and clubs and not natiOnal organisatiOns will actually arrange Screening Tests for their athletes to try to detect some of the underlying causes that can result in cardiac arrest. But clearly that is not the Only answer. These are events still happen. In not the Only answer. These are events still happen. Not the Only answer. These are events still happen. In terms of our events still happen. In terms of your experience, events still happen. In terms of your experience, i events still happen. In terms of your experience, i do events still happen.

Yes, some Ons'>Sporting OrganisatiOns will do it as a matter of course, so the fa, for example, has a very mature Screening Programme and Christian Eriksen and many other footballers will have been through that kind of programme and the Screening Tests are designed to detect the more commOn causes of Heart Disease that can cause cardiac arrest, but clearly, these tests cannot detect all these causes by any means. In cannot detect all these causes by any meane any means. In terms of the exnerience any means. In terms of the experience with any means. In terms of the experience with fabrice any means. In terms of the experience with Fabrice Muamba, any means. In terms of the experience with Fabrice Muamba, the positive thing is presumably if you regain cOnsciousness and your heart starts again, you are over the most dangerous point. Is that a fair thing to say after a cardiac arrest . 0r Thing to say after a cardiac arrest . Or is that making too much of an assumptiOn . Its or is that making too much of an assumptiOn .

The cardiac arrest is a Moment of extreme peril and if you do not get someOne out of cardiac arrest, things are over. You will not survive. The Ongoing risk to an individual, to extent, depends On the precise cause of that cardiac arrest and you will be aware that many Onalities'>Sporting PersOnalities who have had underlying Heart Disorders diagnosed stop Playing Sports because they are cOnsidered to be at risk or other mitigating treatments are put in place such as Implantable Pacemaker Defibrillators and so On, but you are quite correct, the Moment of extreme Hazard Or Peril is at the time of the cardiac arrest and treating that is a matter that requires people to promptly recognise what is happening and really address it quickly with cpr and with defibrillators. Cpr saves lives and most of us should learn how to perform cpr for all sorts of reasOns, notjust because cardiac arrests affect sportspeople. Many other people will die of cardiac arrest. , ~ other people will die of cardiac arrest. ,~ ,. ,. ,. , arrest. Let me ask you another brief cuestiOn, arrest. Let me ask you another brief questiOn.

That is really difficult to answer. I would say that. If i was asking a medical student or a trainee doctor, i would expect in answer that was to do with addressing what has happened to him as a cOnsequence of the cardiac arrest, has been any damage, any permanent injury, and the secOnd is to do with the potential for this to happen again and it is difficult to comment.

Doctor, thank you very much for your expertise and thoughts On this case. You helped to treat Fabrice Muamba after he collapsed and thank you very much for talking to us On bbc news. Lets talk now to On'>John WatsOn lets talk now toOn'>John WatsOn at wembley. Its feels like a very different mood as we talk now to where we were speaking in our ago. Yes, absolutely. COnfirmatiOn that came from the Danish Fa a short while ago that Christian Eriksen is now awake and will remain in hospitalfor now awake and will remain in hospital for further examinatiOns. A huge relief, as you can imagine, not Only to his family but to his Team Mates as well and seemingly now a willingness On behalf of his danish Team Mates and their oppOnents in that Group B Encounter, finland, to resume that match which was suspended. We understand the request came from the players to uefa for that match to resume and we understand that it will do so in the next half an hour. We understand the remaining four minutes of the first half will be played and that match resumes at 7 30pm, 8 30pm danish time. There will be a five Minute Half time and the match will then be played to its cOnclusiOn. You can Only imagine that that is as a result of the improved cOnditiOn of Christian Eriksen. We, of course, would not want to speculate what uefa may have chosen to do if the situatiOn had been very different, but a very pleasing outcome at this stage that his cOnditiOn has improved, he is awake and respOnsive in hospital, but too early to speculate for what this could mean in the lOng term for his career, but the significant thing at the Moment is seemingly he is healthy and he is in a much better cOnditiOn in hospital. I hugely cOncerning Moment, wasnt it, as we saw him collapse On the pitch just after half time, taking On finland in denmark was like Opening Match of the euro 2020 champiOnship, but huge relief now that seemingly his cOnditiOn has improved and, as you say, we are able to bring some good news On what was a very worrying situatiOn. , ,. , ~ situatiOn.

NOnetheless, Denmark Willj now play their Opening Match without One of their absolute star players and even the most optimistic persOn would not be hopeful of Christian Eriksen being able to resume his place in the team possibly at all in this cOntest at least. What would the loss of him mean for denmark, as a team . How important is he to their performance . He a team . How important is he to their performance . Performance . He is integral, there is no Doubt Performance . He is integral, there is No Doubt about performance . He is integral, there is No Doubt about that. Performance . He is integral, there is No Doubt about that. In many is No Doubt about that. In many ways, he is the key player that that team is built around. He produces so much creatively. A lot of their attacking moves will obviously go through him. He is a hugely influential player. I think, though, that the players No Doubt will be stirred On this evening if they are willing to play On, the opposite want to do so, for Christian Eriksen and quite impressive that they seem ready to return to The Field, but he will be a huge loss. You can Only spectate what this could mean for his lOng term career. We know that Fabrice Muamba, you might remember, in 2012 On'>Playing For BoltOn in an Fa Cup tie in English Football against tottenham at the time, he collapsed, his heart stopped for 76 minutes and luckily he survived, but it certainly meant The End of his playing career. The key thing in this Moment, though, is that Christian Eriksen is well, as you say, respOnsive in hospital and stable as things stand, but the match will resume without Christian Eriksen, due to get under way in the next Half Hour or so at the other Group B Encounter which is being staged in St Petersburg between Russia And Belgium kicks off at 8pm, also going ahead. Just Russia And Belgium kicks off at 8pm, also going ahead also going ahead. Just the mood in the stadium also going ahead. Just the mood in the stadium is also going ahead. Just the mood in the stadium is going also going ahead. Just the mood in the stadium is going to also going ahead. Just the mood in the stadium is going to be also going ahead. Just the mood in the stadium is going to be very the stadium is going to be very important for the players. You can imagine the receptiOn they are going to receive when they come back Onto the pitch because, obviously, it is their home size, their home fans, thousands of Danish Fans in the stadium looking forward to this One'>Match And One can imagine the euphoria now they have heard the news over the Stadium Speaker that ericssOn is stable and cOnscious. Yes, i think you can Only imagine the receptiOn that the players will get as they return to The Field of play. They looked so shocked, hugely upset by what they had seen unfold just before half time in that Opening Match and we saw christian Eriksens Partner On the sideline being cOnsoled by the danish Captain And Kasper schmeichel, the Leicester City goalkeeper, a danish goalkeeper cOnsoling her On the sidelines. It was quite a special Moment as she saw the players surround Christian Eriksen as he received a cpr, looking to protect his dignity. It was quite a symbolic Moment in many ways, just nobody was sure as to what was going to play out, but i think the newsletters come through to the Team Mates and the fans, they will be so pleased that christian OnditiOn'>Eriksens COnditiOn has improved and that he is stable in hospital and with that match due to resume, i think, with all of the On-and-excitement'>AnticipatiOn And Excitement that had come before this tournament, obviously, with a very tragic circumstances we have seen played out, now with seemingly so much better news, i think there will be a huge receptiOn from those Danish Fans as that match resumes later in copenhagen. John Danish Fans as that match resumes later in copenhagen. Danish fans as that match resumes later in copenhagen. John watsOn at Wembley Stadium later in copenhagen.

A real emotiOnal Roller Coaster for Danish Fans, anyOne who cares about a 29 year old man collapsing in such circumstances. 90 minutes in which it looked like christian Eriksens Life was hanging in the balance and the good Onight'>News TOnight is that the leading former tottenham player, Inter Milan player and now natiOnal Team Playerfor Denmark Inter Milan player and now natiOnal Team Player for denmark is comfortable in hospital, stable, we are told, cOnscious, awake, talking and awaiting tests. The match is going to resume in about 20 minutes time, the denmark finland game. You can imagine the atmosphere there now after the really good news after those worrying scenes in which 29 year olds Christian Eriksen collapsed suddenly On the pitch just for half time as he had the ball and had to receive life saving treatment, cpr On the pitch with his Team Mates surrounding him trying to provide the On-and-privacy'>ProtectiOn And Privacy in this Life Or Death Moment at the stadium.

Lets talk a little bit more macrOn because the main business of the day, of course, is trying to find a way in which all these countries can work together much closer in pandemic recovery, and how they combat and challenge china, i guess, so do you think the british side feels all the im making progress .

Speaking to some of the prime l speaking to some of the prime ministers team, and i was speaking to someOnejust now ministers team, and i was speaking to someOne just now about how they think it has all gOne, they are well aware that, of course, the northern Ireland Protocol, all the brexit disagreements are there, real, going to be a problem and are a problem, but their view On all of this is that just but their view On all of this is thatjust because you disagree On One thing does not mean you cannot make huge progress in other areas and so they are also aware that people look at the g7, look at the summits, they can see from the outside that people will be looking in and saying this is all a bit of a jamboree, what is the point of this . They are talking about Climate Change but all flying in and Helicopter Ring around, but they say especially at the Moment, with this particular summit coming after covid, this is the first time these leaders have been togetherfor some time and there has been this devastatiOn of this Covid Pandemic and this circumstance for very, very many, it is important they work together and i think a lot of countries know that for the last 15 mOnths, it has been a bit every country for themselves, the scramble for ppe and protective equipment, Thejostling Over for ppe and protective equipment, the jostling over Vaccine Availability as actually they have to work together and so they say you should not underestimate this pledge from america for On'>500 MilliOn doses of the covid vaccine, 109 from britain, hoping for more from other countries, you can make progress in these areas and this is a particular Moment where that has to happen and, of course, there is also the issue of course, there is also the issue of Climate Change. Of course, there is also the issue of Climate Change. There is a lot of nicism of Climate Change. There is a lot of cynicism around of Climate Change. There is a lot of cynicism around about of Climate Change. There is a lot of cynicism around about what of Climate Change. There is a lot of cynicism around about what he of Climate Change. There is a lot of cynicism around about what he g7| cynicism around about what he G7 Summit can achieve, but i think we should bear in mind we had four years of Onald-love'>DOnald Love who is not a multilateral list and then the pandemic so it has been very difficult for this group to work together and we spoke to Tim Smith who designed the Eden Project who was there Last Night and watch the leaders interact, watch The Business leaders interact, watch The Business leaders there and he said, you know what, i sought commOn purpose. There was a determinatiOn to get to grips with some of these issues, the sustainable ecOnomies On green issues and he is much more optimistic than lots of people who have been looking On. I optimistic than lots of people who have been looking On. Have been looking On. I think that is definitely have been looking On. I think that is definitely the have been looking On. I think that is definitely the case, have been looking On. I think that is definitely the case, but have been looking On. I think that is definitely the case, but there. Have been looking On. I think that is definitely the case, but there is another problem here which is china needs to be part of this, so this has always been the dilemma there has always been the dilemma there has been, russia which is to be part of this during the g8 and are not part of it any more and what do you do about the relatiOnship with china . You have to have them working alOngside you, the emerging natiOns. When it comes to Climate Change, they have a massive issue about this. They turnaround and say, you had an industrial revolutiOn, Burn Fossil Fuels and what will happen for us . They have to help these emerging countries and they will have to have a relatiOnship with china through all of this as well, so it is that dilemma of how much you have a cOnstructive relatiOnship which you are always going to need but still call out china On those issues where they need to do that. Talk to me from a uk perspective, i guess, about what happened today in these bilateral meetings. Emanuel macrOn is almost approaching it in a kind of sick and carriageway saying, look, we could reset anglo french relatiOns but it is entirely dependent On you following the northern Ireland Protocol which you signed up to.

The uk would say it is about implementatiOn, it is about the issues that it has turned out there are which have led to problems potentially in society in Northern Ireland, the Peace Process at the centre of all of this and it is about the protestant community there as well, so everyOne has to tread very carefully. The background to this is not good, the eu is taking legal actiOn against the uk about the protocol because we have already decided, without talking to the eu about it, to increase a period where there are not going to be checks. This is about checksum goods coming from england, scotland and wales into Northern Ireland, part of the united kingdom but still following some eu rules. BorisjohnsOn was warned about this. Go back to the referendum, everyOne topped about it, tOny blair talked about it, John Major talked about it and On'>Boris JohnsOn decided to put the border, effectively, down the Irish Sea so Northern Ireland is treated differently and now it is causing problems for stoploss and people say they should have seen this coming and they say that we can be pragmatic about it, find a way round but we have to be very mindful that there are two sides to this story. But it is about trust in The End and On'>Emanuel MacrOn does not sound like a persOn who is trusting the uk On this and it does not sound like he is going to compromise, but someOne will have to compromise somewhere. 0k, will have to compromise somewhere. Ok, thats the serious stuff. We will come back to the serious stuff because there are a lot more announcements to come, but i will just frame this behind us, this incredible harbour behind us. The most perfect sailing day. This is incredible, One of the deepest harbours in the world, we have watched Sailing Boats go out during the course of the day and we are about to see the Red Arrows. 0f about to see the Red Arrows. Of course, the Red Arrows have not been able to display very much because when you have read arrows in a display, what you get . Big crowds and, of course, the police are saying, please do not gather, please do not come out in big groups, remember to socially distance, but for cornwall, as a cornish girl, this is incredible, isnt it . B, this is incredible, isnt it . Showcase for the world. I think what has happened is i was here On holiday and people were mourning because the Car Parks were shut, they have had weeks of disruptiOn, but On the other hand, a lot of people from here do feel proud that cornwall is On the world stage. This is showing cornwall and luckily the weather is good, showing it in the most incredible light, all sorts of things about tOnight, the barbecue On the beach and the food they are eating is locally sourced, cornish produce, cornish chefs, all of that, i think, will make people feel this will be good for the cornish ecOnomy and showcasing all of that, so despite the annoyance and, for me, yesterday i texted my sister saying, Princess Catherine is in a goal here the royalfamily are down here and all of that, it is exciting and there definitely are people who have actually thought that the cOnvoy, biden cosmic cOnvoy going down the dual carriageway and going round the roundabout that we all did our Driving Test around, it has got locals excited, i think, despite the irritatiOn. Brute locals excited, i think, despite the irritatiOn. ~. ,. , irritatiOn. We are looking at ictures irritatiOn. We are looking at pictures of irritatiOn. We are looking at pictures of cawsand irritatiOn. We are looking at pictures of Cawsand Bay irritatiOn. We are looking at i pictures of Cawsand Bay where the leaders will come together On the beach. I am leaders will come together On the beach. Iam hearing it might leaders will come together On the beach. I am hearing it might be quarter to four the Red Arrows. You can set your watch by them, so it is us who have got it
