DORTMUND, Germany (AP) — Denmark midfielder Christian Eriksen is expected to be available against Germany in the European Championship last 16 despite missing training on Friday because of what coach Kasper Hjulmand described as “stomach issues.”
Hjulmand said fellow midfielder Thomas Delaney also experienced the same problems.
“We decided that they would not train,” Hjulmand said. "Hopefully they will be ready for tomorrow.”
Asked specifically about Eriksen, Hjulmand said the Manchester United midfielder traveled separately to the rest of the squad for an early evening walk around Dortmund's stadium, where Saturday's match will be played, but expects him to be ready.
Indeed, he said Eriksen will not continue to be isolated from the squad.
“No, he’s going to be with us,” Hjulmand said. “We have our team doctor with us, but I hear (Eriksen) is going to be with us tonight.”
Hjulmand said he wasn't worried that Eriksen and Delaney got sick at the same time.
“I think it’s normal when you are so many people together for such a long time,” he said.
Delaney has been viewed as the likely replacement for central midfielder Morten Hjulmand, who is suspended after picking up two yellow cards.

DETROIT (AP) — Cam Davis won the Rocket Mortgage Classic for the second time, closing with a 2-under 70 on Sunday that gave him a one-shot victory when Akshay Bhatia three-putted from 32 feet on the final hole.
Davis, a 29-year-old Australian who won his first PGA Tour title three years ago at Detroit Golf Club, pulled into a tie with Bhatia with a birdie on the par-5 17th hole.
That proved to be enough when Bhatia's 4-foot par attempt on the 18th missed low and left for his first three-putt of the week.
Davis finished at 18-under 270 on a day of missed opportunities for the final pairing of Bhatia and Aaron Rai, each of whom shot an even-par 72. Davis Thompson (68) and Min Woo Lee (69) also finished one shot back.
Davis became the first two-time winner of the event since its debut on the PGA Tour schedule in 2019.
The 22-year-old Bhatia was seeking his third PGA Tour title and second this year after leading or sharing the lead after each of the first three rounds.
Cameron Young shot 73 and plummeted to sixth place with two bogeys over the last three holes. Still winless on the PGA Tour, Young broke his driver in frustration on the 14th tee box.
