A 4-1 Victory for Denmark Sends Them Through to the Next Round at Euro 2020
Denmark delivered an electrifying performance on an emotional night in Copenhagen, overcoming Russia 4-1 to secure a place in the last 16 of Euro 2020. The victory came after a gripping match, where Denmark’s clinical attacking play and resilience ensured they finished second in their group.
The match began with a stunning strike from Mikkel Damsgaard in the 38th minute, putting Denmark 1-0 ahead. The game took another turn in the second half when Yury Dzyuba equalized for Russia with a header in the 70th minute. However, Denmark quickly regained the lead with goals from Andreas Christensen (80′) and Joakim Mæhle (82′), completing a commanding 4-1 scoreline.
The victory was even more poignant for Denmark, who have been playing in the wake of Christian Eriksen’s on-field collapse earlier in the tournament. The win not only secured their advancement but was a testament to the team’s strength and emotional spirit. Denmark will now face Wales in the last 16.
