Match obviously called off due to the awful incident to Christian Eriksen .

Let’s hope he is ok.

Deleted all predictions- I presume they won’t play it again ?

UEFA says Eriksen's health status was stabilized. I hope that's true.

Great credit to the medics and officials/players involved.

Mark, deleting the predictions might be a bit premature.
Maybe the match will be continued tomorrow.

The game is to be restarted at 2030. Following the request of both teams. UEFA agreed. 4mins of the 1st half then 5min break and then the 2nd half

According to UEFA

A rather bizarre decision but perhaps was triggered by the fact that Eriksen is being reported to be concious and able to speak.

Ok - sorry about that.

This won't be a normal game anymore anyway. I think deletion of the predictions can be somehow justified. Also as a kind of gesture in reaction to this traumatic event.

I have a gut feeling that both teams may like to play out a draw but we'll see very soon.

I have just re opened the Denmark v Finland game but the predictions have vanished. The game was never finalised was it ? No way of getting them back Klaus ?

I have a backup from 18:36.
I'm trying to restore the deleted data. I'm not 100% sure if it's possible.

I have to restore the data on a different server, exporting the match predictions for MATCH_ID 227252 and import the data back into the prediction game.
This will take several hours...

Well the game is now re opened so the full time score can be inputted for group purposes etc. I have every faith in you Klaus.

Should Challenge Contest be used / cancelled?

Are we sure that we want this match to count after all this?

Imagine now Finland trying to make it hard for Denmark in 2nd half and beating them. I think the circumstances highly influence the potential outcome.

There is no solution that satisfies everyone.
I'll try to restore the predictions.

I'm at ease.
After what happened before... this is just a game.

Yes sorry deleted them.

Was rather quick in my haste.

I do agree with Michael in a way - suspect the game will end 0-0.

Personally i think, as the game has restarted and carried on, we do the same. Nobody is at an advantage by getting the predictions back after all.

well, I was totally wrong. They really mean business. Finland just scored a goal.

Yes - did anyone have them to win ?

Ca. 30 people out of over 900 if I remember correctly.

I still feel like continuing with the game tonight was somehow not right and premature even it it was Eriksen himself (as the media reported) who wanted the game to resume asap. I think it was just too much for the Danes for one evening. But Eriksen's health is now the only thing that really matters.

so will the predictions be reinstated if not than thats 30 possible new predictors that have joined this website feel hard done by and possibly 30 less predictors for future prediction games?

Yes - I hope they weren’t pressured into it.

Love this idea. It’s always good to know how popular your choice is, or if that decision to go against the grain really paid off. Excited to see something like this come in permanently.
