If I'm a defender defending a corner I'm going to fall down everytime. Always a foul. Forwards cannot breathe on defenders these days.

proud day for us. I'm glad we got it over the line and finished 2nd in our group, the wait to see if 3rd place is enough or not would have sucked!
the team has achieved what was realistically achievable, everything else is gravy now. As long as Italy doesn't go ballistic on us, I'm happy.

Axel Witsel....
Are you a Professional Footballer or what? That was the worst shot from the top of the box that I've seen in years.
From 20 yards that almost went out for a throw.

Denmark need another goal to make sure. 1-0 is not enough if Finland draw. It would put Denmark behind Ukraine.

Finland deserves to win just based on how fantastic that Kit is.

I know right?
I'm not even remotely Finnish but I want one of those. That kit is sharp!

Italy faced no adversity in the group stage. They are primed for a stumble.

Irrelevant to Denmark what Finland do. Even if Finland lose they finish above Denmark. Head to head is first tiebreaker. But yeah they need another goal as looking like 3 points and - 1 won't be enough.

Not if it's a three way tie which it will be if Denmark and Belgium win.

Isn't it a three way tiebreak with Russia? Three teams on 3 points all beat each other. Denmark would finish 2nd if Finland lose if they win by 2

Or is it?
The official app now has Denmark on second place? But the rule is....
If two or more teams are tied in points at the end of group play, ties are broken via the following:
Greatest number of points accrued in the matches between the tied teams.

I mean what a horrifying sequence for Denmark, awful penalty and Lukaku is, I guess, 1/1,000,000th of a MM offside for a Belgium goal.

should have been a second yellow for Kudryashov just before the joke pen as well. The ref has been absolutely atrocious.

You meant they are the clear favourites based on the group stage?
Thus far they are far and away the best looking team at this tournament, haven't conceded in 1000 minutes and are undefeated in 30 games over a 9 month span.
