Tottenham midfielder feels happy after Denmark win, but is not getting carried away.
Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen has mixed feelings after Denmark’ opening World Cup victory.
Eriksen created the winning goal for striker Yussuf Poulsen to give them a 1-0 win over Peru.
The attacking midfielder was not getting carried away with the win, but was happy all the same to get the three points, especially with Peru missing a first half penalty when the game was goalless.
Eriksen posted a message on Instagram after the game.
Tottenham teammate Toby Alderweireld had a short response, posting: “Congrats” in reply to Eriksen’s message.
The centre-back will be in action for Belgium on Monday when they face Panama on Monday.
Eriksen’s Denmark are in a strong position to qualify from the last 16, and can do so if they beat Australia in their next game.
