“I’m fine – under the circumstances. I still have to go through some examinations at the hospital, but I feel okay.
“Now, I will cheer on the boys on the Denmark team in the next matches. Play for all of Denmark. Best, Christian.”On Monday he sent his first message through his agent, saying: “Thank you, I won’t give up. I feel better now – but I want to understand what’s happened,” he said.
“I want to say thank you all for what you did for me.”
