The game was overshadowed by the collapse on the pitch of the Danish midfielder, Christian Eriksen. It was later confirmed that he had suffered cardiac arrest and only prompt action by paramedics who administered CPR had saved his life. After 15 minutes of treatment he was rushed to a nearby hospital and an hour later news reached the stadium that Eriksen was awake and out of danger. The teams agreed to resume the match, both receiving a standing ovation from the 15,000 supporters in the ground.

Belgium finished top with three wins but they were made to work hard for it. Finland defended with determination and were saved several times by heroics from their goalkeeper, Hradecky. Lukaku appeared to have broken the deadlock but a late VAR check revealed he had been offside by the length of his big toe. In the 74th minute Vermaelen's header bounced off the post and went in off Hradecky's hand for a very unfortunate own goal. Lukaku finished the game off with a second goal seven minutes later.
