Denmark Player Ratings against England
Kasper Schmeichel (8.5/10)
Schmeichel had a brilliant game against England and was possibly the best player on the pitch. He made a range of stops, from stunning to regulation, including the penalty that was turned in by Kane. The Leicester City custodian commanded the Denmark penalty box well.
Simon Kjaer (7/10)
Kjaer was inspirational once again at centre-back. The Danish captain was unfortunate to concede the own goal under pressure but bailed his team out on quite a few occasions.
Jannik Vestergaard (6.5/10)
By no means did the half-back have a bad game, but Vestergaard gave away a couple of cheap free-kicks in his overexuberance to turn the ball over.
Andreas Christensen (7.5/10)
Denmark's best defender on the night was great in his tackling and clearances. But Christensen had to be subbed off after heroically stretching to stop a ball that would have put Grealish through.
Jens Stryger Larsen (6.5/10)
The wing-back was assured in his defensive duties, but his crossing from the right lacked potency.
Pierre-Emile Hojbejrg (8/10)
Hojbjerg was amazing on the night. The Tottenham Hotspur defensive midfielder read the game perfectly and broke up play with elan. He was seemingly ubiquitous on the field against England.
Thomas Delaney (7/10)
It was another consummate performance in midfield from a defensive perspective. A little more quality in attack from Delaney could have made the difference against England, though.
Joakim Maehle (6.5/10)
Maehle, the other Denmark wingback, has also had better games at Euro 2020. He was decent on the ball against England but was often late on tackles and needed to offer more going forward.
Martin Braithwaite (6.5/10)
The Barcelona forward worked hard but needed to hit the target better when shooting. He could have got into better positions as a striker too.
Kasper Dolberg (7/10)
The striker has had a great Euro 2020 campaign. Dolberg looked sharp on the night as well. Some of his shots had venom and fizz, but he did not get a great look at the goal against England.
Mikkel Damsgaard (8/10)
The 21-year-old super talent not only netted a stunning free-kick, but he also initiated counters with his sharp passing. Damsgaard was instrumental in Denmark dominating large swathes of the first half but was taken off in the second.
Ratings of Denmark substitiutes:
Joachim Andersen (7/10)
Andersen perfectly fit into the Denmark defence in place of Christensen after the latter hurt himself while stretching to prevent an England attack.
Youssuf Poulsen (5/10)
The striker's entry coincided with Denmark becoming ultra defensive. Poulsen himself hardly did anything upfront and also committed one or two poor fouls.
Daniel Wass (6/10)
Wass struggled partly because England were relentless in their pressing.
Mathias Jensen (6/10)
Jensen came on in the 88th minute to offer creative impetus but never really influenced the game against England.
Jonas Wind (5.5/10)
The striker got 16 minutes to become a hero. Needless to say, that never happened, and Jonas Wind hardly got into the game.
