Jup.

When there's a streaker on the pitch we'll never see it, but when something like this happens, they show every detail.
WTF UEFA?


**** like that makes me so angry. What kind of **** up person zooms in to show his wife in this situation? Incredible stuff.

ZDF switching to some kind of movie where some random woman is reanimated because they feel incapable to report through this situation is incredible stuff as well.

Glad Eriksen is ok. This match and result now is completely irrelevant.

Remember when Hjulmand was in Mainz.

Games would look exactly the way Denmark are playing today. A lot of possession but no idea how to
create good chances and always bottling one or two at the back.
Needless to say Hjulmand was fired after a couple months.

They scored 14 in first 3 matches in WC qualifying... that's not a problem. Their heads are clearly not in the game

I thought it was dive but on replay it is a foul clearly.

14 against 3rd string competition in qualifiers.

I mean they couldve scored here, too, because Finland aint that good but its fairly evident there is no plan for the final third. Just passing and passing and passing. No sense of pressure or urgency at all.

Always been the problem with Hjulmand and thats why he never made it in a big league.

The biggest problem with Hjulmand much like Guardiola is he wants to be dominant. He wants the team to tie the opponent in their own half while it is sometimes better to take a step off the gas and get something going with a counter attack rather than having to beat a defense that is all settled.

Can't believe what I witnessed today. Glad Eriksen is doing alright, like everyone else I thought the worst.

Even if the football is irrelevant, unfortunately the Danes still look a little out of it. Big mistake by Schmeichel for the goal, and a truly terrible penalty by Hojbjerg.

22 shots vs 1 and score 0-1. Can't win many games if you miss that many shots. I feel Danes won't recover from it. They certainly can beat Russia even without Eriksen but they will need at least a draw vs Belgium and I doubt that is possible.

Austria is in EURO 2020... would not call them 3d string competition and they scored 4 against them, agree about Israel or Moldova.
Problem with Danes is they overpass to the point where they try to get great, clear chance instead of taking good one or taking some risks.... More aggression in finishing is certainly needed. Too bad Sisto fallen out of favor and out of shape, he was the one who could take on 2-3 defenders and create something out of nothing.

Yeah I was surprised to see him too. I remember his Chelsea days around 2009. Felt like he was old even then.

Very happy with the way we played today.
Bad luck for Castagne though...maybe another one with a face mask.

Hazard with a good minutes although he got hacked a couple of times.
