Denmark and Tunisia opened Group D of the World Cup in Qatar with a draw to nil, the first goalless match of this World Cup.
Benfica winger Alexander Bah has not left the bench. The match also marked the return to the big stages of Christian Eriksen, after cardiac arrest in 2001, at Euro 2020 in Copenhagen, during the match against Finland. It’s his third World Cup.
The North Africans practically dominated the entire first half, with Issam Jebali, one of the two Tunisians who curiously play in Denmark (Jebali plays for Odense), who had two great chances: in the 23rd minute the goal was disallowed – he beat Schmeichel and was happy, but the goal was disallowed. disallowed for offside; at 43 he provided an almost imperceptible defense to Schmeichel.
In the second half, the Tunisians came back with more fire, but in the 56th minute the second goal of the match was disallowed: a shot by Andreas Skov Olsen, but Darmsgaard was first caught offside.
Denmark’s best move would come in the 70th minute, with a dive by Cornelius that didn’t score a goal, and the ball hit the post and deflected.
Has it been like this for a while??
