Match Events
- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Denmark and France is underway.
- 5' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 10' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 15' Denmark is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 20' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 25' Denmark seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 30' It looks like no one’s ball. France is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 35' Supporters expect more eagerness from Steve Mandanda, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 40' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 40 minutes.
- 45' A meaty challenge results in booking for Mathias Jorgensen on 45.
- 50' Another change for France made on 50 minute. Lucas Hernandez leaves to be changed by Benjamin Mendy.
- 55' Denmark is showing some good football. However, Denmark are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

- 73' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.

- 78' Another substitution for France to replace Ousmane Dembele by Kylian Mbappe on 78 minute.
- 83' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
