England and Denmark back to back at the break (1-1)!
It’s halftime in Frankfurt! After opening the scoring through Kane, the English saw the Danes return to the game thanks to a huge strike from Hjulmand. 1-1 at the break, everything remains to be done in the second half!
Hojbjerg’s big shot!
Like Hjulmand, the Tottenham midfielder sends a big shot with his right foot but this time Pickford can grab the ball.
Foden’s cross finds no one
The Manchester City wisp wraps a good ball towards the area. Saka is too short to take it back. It goes out of goal.
Kane’s opening score in video:
The Three Lions took the lead in this meeting thanks to Kane. Everything has to be redone now.
England in great difficulty
Hjulmand once again finds himself in a comfortable situation to strike and takes his chance. It’s deflected for a corner, the English have been under enormous pressure for several minutes.
1st goal in selection for Hjulmand!
And what a goal for the world of Sporting! He may remember it for a long time.
OH LE BIJOUUU DE HULMAND, 1-1 !
Oh it’s perhaps one of the best goals of the Euro! 28 meters from Pickford’s cage, Hjulmand tries his luck and sends a sharp shot which hits the right post before returning, 1-1!
The left side of the English defense takes on water
The English play with fire and Wind gets another opportunity, he gets the corner. The Guéhi-Trippier pair is very fragile in this first half hour.
Christensen defends Saka well
The Arsenal winger picks up speed on the right side but hits a wall: Christensen. The rock of Barcelona stops him remarkably.
Alexander-Arnold plays the saviors in defense
Eriksen once again sows danger in the English defense. The ball lands at Hojlund’s feet but Alexander-Arnold intervenes and steals a valuable ball.
Vestergaard sanctioned by the referee
Saka plays with the big Leicester defender who makes a big mistake to prevent him from continuing his action. Yellow card logically shown by the referee.
Bellingham a little short
Long ball from Stones in the depth. Bellingham runs fast but not enough to catch him and it finally lands directly in Schmeichel’s gloves.
The Danes respond directly
The English opening score shook the Danes. Eriksen tries to sound the revolt and strikes into the penalty area. Trippier tackles and repels the danger.
Kane, a serial scorer also in the selection
The Bayern Munich goalkeeper has just scored his 64th goal with the English selection, all in 93 matches played.
Kane delivers England, 1-0!!!!
The Three Lions are already bringing Denmark to its knees!!! Walker overflows on the right side and completely catches Kristiansen, the City center full-back, Kane recovers the ball after a defensive mix-up and crucifies Schmeichel!
Andersen blocks Kane
It’s Kane’s turn to try his luck, this time from outside the area, but Andersen tackles with anger and against the Bayern striker’s attempt.
Foden opens his foot too much!
This is the first big opportunity for England! Foden fixes the Danish defense and infiltrates the area. He rolls with his left foot but it escapes the frame…
Difficult control for Hojlund
Vestergaard sends a very good ball towards Hojlund in attack. The Mancunian loses his control a little and lets Guéhi intervene.
A first hard blow for England?
Walker remains on the ground as his ankle appears to have turned slightly. The Englishman changes shoes initially and should keep his place for the moment.
Trippier defends with vice
The Newcastle full-back, positioned on the left with England, contains Maehle’s overflow well and even gets the foul behind.
A Danish block well in place
Kasper Hjulmand’s team leaves England little space. It will take movement and speed on the English side to break through the lines.
First sequence of possession for the English
The ball sails between the feet of the English until Walker misses the reception of a cross from Trippier…
Bellingham in a slightly lower position
The number 10 of the Three Lions occupies a slightly lower position than against Serbia in these first seconds and walks between Rice and Alexander-Arnold. A tactical indication?
Let’s go !
After a minute of silence observed following the death of Gerhard Aigner, former UEFA general secretary, the kick-off is given! It is the English who are in charge.
Denmark-England, a semi-final during Euro 2021
The last confrontation between the two teams dates back to July 7, 2021 in the semi-final of the Euro. In front of the Wembley crowd, the English won 2-1 after extra time with goals from Simon Kjaer (CSC) and Harry Kane.
England can validate their ticket for the round of 16
While Slovenia and Serbia have just shared the points in the other Group C match, the Three Lions have the field open and can already qualify for the round of 16 if they succeed against Denmark.
The Danes challenge the English before the match
The atmosphere is great in Frankfurt where the Danish supporters largely taunt the English before kick-off.
The composition of Denmark, Eriksen holder
Great people from Denmark with Christian Eriksen, scorer against Slovenia, but also Andreas Christensen and the Mancunian, Rasmus Hojlund.
The Danish starting XI: Schmeichel – Andersen, Christensen, Vestergaard – Maehle, Hojbjerg, Hjulmand, Kristiansen – Eriksen – Wind, Hojlund
Classic for the composition of England
Yet widely criticized for the lack of inspiration of his troops against Serbia, Gareth Southgate trusts the same men who were able to win against Serbia on Sunday (1-0). No changes made.
The English starting XI: Pickford – Walker, Stones, Guehi, Trippier – Rice, Alexander-Arnold – Saka, Bellingham, Foden; Kane.
England fans set the mood before facing Denmark
No need for sun or extreme heat to take the plunge. The English prove it with one of their supporters, visibly very heated, who did a dive in a fountain, in the middle of a hundred supporters of the Three Lions who sing songs.
Hello and welcome to this live
Be careful, tantalizing shock. Favorite of this Euro, England did not show much but took three points from its first outing against Serbia.
Faced with Denmark, most of whose players know the Premier League well, including the unsinkable Christian Eriksen, who came very close to death during the previous Euro, we will undoubtedly have to work a little harder. Danes who could, however, take a big step towards qualification in the event of victory, after their draw against Slovenia.
The compositions will be available around 5 p.m., and those of Gareth Southgate are always closely scrutinized. Kick-off at 6 p.m. on BeIn Sports 1. A match to also follow live and in full on RMC 100% Euro digital radio, like all Euro 2024 matches. And of course, live commentary on the site and the RMC Sport app.
