Denmark fears the speed of Wales, his spirit and Gareth Bale

Copenhagen, Jun 24 (EFE) .- The speed of their counterattacks, their collective spirit and Gareth Bale are the aspects of Wales that worry Denmark the most, which this Saturday faces the “Red Dragons” in Amsterdam in the round of 16 of the Eurocup.
“We beat them the last two times (in the Nations League in 2018), but they were difficult games. I am concerned about their speed. It will be a real fight. We have great respect. I know they can hurt us,” he said this Thursday. midfielder Thomas Delaney.
Full-back Jens Stryger Larsen does not believe that the latest clashes serve as a benchmark because three years have already passed and he highlights the order of Wales and their “world-class” attack.
“Wales is special. It is a team with two world stars, but the rest are not so good. It is special to be measured against a team in which there is so much difference in level. On the other hand, we are a more homogeneous group, most have the same level, “says striker Andreas Cornelius.
Danish coach Kasper Hjulmand believes the two teams have “many things in common”: great popular support, their collective spirit and their tactical flexibility.
All eyes are predictably focused on Bale, a player for whom the Danes have great respect.
“He is a fantastic player, he has shown it for many years. He is difficult to stop and he has a star,” says Daniel Wass.
For Cornelius, the Real Madrid winger, on loan at Tottenham last season, is “one of the best in the world.”
“He is world class. He almost always brings out the best for Wales, he loves to play for his national team, where he has his place and they give him affection. He has lost some speed, he is more of a point guard, but he is just as decisive,” says Hjulmand, who watch the game “at 50%”.
Respect for Wales and Bale does not prevent Denmark from being satisfied with the match and looking to go far at this Euro Cup.
“I am satisfied with the draw. We could have faced worse countries than Wales, but I am sure they think the same. It is a team we respect,” explains Delaney.
