Events
Match Events
- 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and Russia launch into their encounter with Denmark.
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Christian Norgaard, as he is very good at scoring at Parken with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 10' Pierre Emile Hojbjerg has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 15' Russia started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 15.
- 20' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Kasper Hjulmand will be considering his options from the bench.
- 25' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Russia and Denmark are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 28' Fedor Kudryashov has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 28.
- 33' The energy levels are beginning to show. Kasper Hjulmand might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 38' GOAL! Mikkel Damsgaard fires home to make it 0-1!
- 43' Igor Diveev is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Russia so far.
- 48' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Yussuf Poulsen suffering a number of foals already.
- 53' Magomed Ozdoev has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 30 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 57' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Thomas Delaney.
- 59' A stunning finish from Yussuf Poulsen — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 60' The whistle greets Daniel Wass as he departs to be replaced by Jens Stryger Larsen.
- 61' The crowd applauds Daniel Wass as he leaves the pitch. Jens Stryger Larsen steps in for Denmark.
- 62' The supporters are chanting for Rifat Zhemaletdinov. He replaces Magomed Ozdoev on 62 minute.
- 67' It looks like no one’s ball. Denmark is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 68' It is a substitution in Russia team. Daler Kuzyaev is replaced by Maksim Mukhin on 68 minute.
- 70' Artem Dzyuba adds to his 2 season tally! Russia lead 1-2 — and this changes everything.
- 72' Denmark manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Christian Norgaard is hanging Mikkel Damsgaard on the field on 72 minute.
- 76' Igor Diveev picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 79' Magnificent from Andreas Christensen! That is 9 goals in 409 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 82' GOAL! Joakim Maehle scores on 82. Assisted by Pierre Emile Hojbjerg
- 85' Andreas Cornelius is ready to make an impact after coming on for Martin Braithwaite at the 85 minute mark.
- 86' The whistle greets Thomas Delaney as he departs to be replaced by Mathias Jensen.
- The referee brings this contest to a close. Denmark take all three points.
