Varane made his official return from injury this evening when he was named in the France starting XI, as Eriksen lined up in the opposing midfield.
Kylian Mbappe opened the scoring on the hour mark after excellent link-up play with Theo Hernandez. But just eight minutes later, Denmark equalised through a pinpoint Eriksen corner that was flicked on and eventually headed home emphatically by Andreas Christensen.
But just under five minutes before the end, Mbappe stepped up once again to get on the end of Antoine Griezmann's unstoppable cross and snatch all three points.
In the first half, Denmark struggled to get a foothold in the game, with their two significant efforts on goal both coming from range and flying wide of Hugo Lloris's goal.
