The collapse of Christian Eriksen continues to cast a heavy shadow over the Euros, and any injury or fall to the pitch is accompanied by slight moments of anxiety.
Last night (Tuesday) Benjamin Faber caused concern when he fell to the grass after encountering Robin Gossens.
At the end Faber said he lost consciousness and was unconscious "for 10-15 seconds" following the blow he received to the head, but continued to play after reporting that he was feeling well.
"It was a hit piece. I was a little unconscious for a few seconds, and then it got better," Favar said.
The decision not to exclude Favre has provoked criticism in France.
In the studio of the French RMC network, one of the commentators said that "they did not seem to have learned anything from Eriksen's precedent. Any such serious blow requires a quick and sharp response. There was no room to allow him to continue playing."

This week, all 24 teams participating in the Euros signed an agreement in which they pledge to improve the care of footballers who suffer from symptoms of concussion.
The European Players' Organization has even approved a program in which a player suffering from such symptoms will be required not to play for at least six days - but the plan has not yet been approved, and UEFA is not required to do so today.
