Christian Eriksen says leading Denmark to the 2018 World Cup with a playoff win against Republic of Ireland in Dublin would eclipse the achievement of inspiring Tottenham to victory against Real Madrid in the Champions League.
Spurs midfielder Eriksen scored the third goal in the 3-1 win against Madrid at Wembley earlier this month on a night when Mauricio Pochettino's team overran the European champions.
The 25-year-old was unable to orchestrate a similarly impressive performance for the Danes against Ireland on Saturday, with the two teams playing out an uneventful 0-0 draw in Copenhagen.
But Eriksen says he is ready to rise to the occasion in Tuesday's second leg at the Aviva Stadium after admitting that a win against Martin O'Neill's team would be bigger than Spurs beating Madrid.
