Amsterdam –
Denmark mercilessly bulldozing Wales 4-0. This Dynamite Team Explosion sets a new record in Euro 2020. What is that?
Denmark as the runner-up in Group B faced Wales as the runner-up in Group A in the round of 16, Saturday (26/6/2021) evening WIB, which was held at the Johan Cruyff ArenA.
Denmark had difficulty keeping up with Wale’s game before Kasper Dolberg opened the scoring in the 27th minute. After that, it was easier for Denmark to control the match.
The second half has only been running for three minutes, Denmark doubled the score through Dolberg’s second goal. Denmark, who was in control, finally added a goal in the 88th minute through the feet of Joakim Maehle and Martin Braithwaite in the 84th minute.
Winning 4-0, Denmark strolled smoothly into the quarterfinals waiting for the winner of the Dutch party against the Czech Republic. Even the initially dubious Danes can throw a tantrum and prove they can be dangerous.
After losing the first two games of the group phase, Denmark went on a rampage in their last two matches. Before thrashing Wales, Denmark also scored four goals as they crushed Russia 4-1 on the last matchday of Group B which ensured their qualification.
Quoted from the official EURO website, Denmark became the first team to score four goals in two consecutive matches of this tournament. In addition, Denmark is also entering its third quarter-final at the Euros as well as the first since 2004.
A total of nine goals have been scored by Denmark in this tournament, equaling their record for most goals in the competition.
On the first occasion in 1992, Denmark, which replaced Yugoslavia, was even able to become champion. Can Denmark explode again this time?
“Just look at our support in Amsterdam. It’s absolutely crazy. This increases confidence and we have to maintain this. We are not afraid to face anyone. We focus on our own performance and the quality of the team,” said Danish defender Joakim Maehle on UEFA’s official website. .
