Some Republic of Ireland fans have criticised Tottenham Hotspur attacking midfielder Christian Eriksen for his comments following the draw for Denmark.

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg put the Danes in the lead in Denmark after 76 minutes, and Shane Duffy restored parity for Mick McCarthy’s side on 85 minutes.
