Christian Eriksen, a Brentford midfielder, makes his comeback in a friendly match.

Christian Eriksen made his first appearance since suffering cardiac arrest in a closed-doors friendly against a Southend United XI on Monday.

Eriksen, an ex-Spurs midfielder, scored a goal in Brentford's 3-2 victory.

After being released by Inter Milan, the Denmark international signed with Brentford last month.

Eriksen told BBC Sport last week that being able to resume his career after falling while playing at Euro 2020 last summer felt like a miracle.

Eriksen is building up his match fitness and the excursion against the Southend side is considered by Brentford boss Thomas Frank as an important part of that.

He last appeared in a competitive match for Denmark on June 12, 2021, during Euro 2020, when he fell on the field and required CPR before being rushed to the hospital.

An implantable cardioverter defibrillator was then implanted in the Dane (ICD).

Eriksen's Inter contract was mutually terminated in December since players wearing an ICD are unable to compete in Serie A.

The Premier League, on the other hand, does not follow the same rules.
