I was pleasantly surprised to watch England beat Croatia 1-0 this afternoon, although everything has been rather overshadowed by one of the Danish team (Christian Eriksen) collapsing on the pitch, during their match with Finland, and having to be resuscitated following an apparent heart attack. Thank goodness he has survived. Whilst this terrible event was going on on the pitch it was moving to see the other Danish team members forming a protective ring around Eriksen and both the Danish and Finnish fans chanting his name. Football can often bring out the worst in human nature (sadly often involving England fans), but this demonstrated the best.
