How it has changed the story. What began as a tribute to Shakespeare and his “Something Smells Rotten in Denmark”, by Hamlet, Eriksen's heart drama through, has been transformed into a story of joy and color, more like the Little Mermaid, also originally from the Nordic country. . Even crabs dance. And is that Denmark, despite all the adversities, will play the quarterfinals of this European Championship after eliminating Wales yesterday in what was probably Bale's last match with his team.
The Welshman made an effort to postpone his farewell, but he has the god of the goal against him. He must have been jealous of the god of the golf hole. He started with energy and almost overtook Wales from the front in a great start for the British team, which surprised by taking the initiative in the first minutes. The Welsh illusion lasted half an hour. How long it took for Dolberg to open the scoring in a play traced to the one that Bale had previously failed. Unlike the Madridista's shot, the Nice forward's shot from the edge of the area caught the thread inwards before which Ward could do nothing, only improve the photo with a stretched one.
Wales ceased to exist from that moment and Denmark, man by man, grew. Kjaer, Hojbjerg and Maehle are at a superlative level in the tournament and if they are joined by a committed Braithwaite, a dedicated Christensen and a multiplying Delaney, they become a very difficult team to beat. Hjumland's team took over the middle of the field and sentenced the match as soon as the second half began. In a counterattack, Braithwaite raced Davies into space and crossed into the box, where he did not find a finisher but did find an assistant. Neco Williams cleared badly and left the ball at the feet of Dolberg, who shot Ward and completed a double that puts his coach in a compromise, who will have to decide between him and Poulsen, who lost due to injury yesterday, in the next game. Maehle and Braithwaite, in the final minutes put the icing on the cake with two goals that certify that the side is one of the great sensations of the tournament and end with the sadness of the Barça forward, whom his teammates did not stop looking until he scored. The story continues.

There is no point in making excuses now. It's disappointing, that's all I can say, “said Bale coming out of the Johan Cruyff Arena in Amsterdam, where Danish fans were a clear majority.
Beyond that play the Wales coach said the team was “frustrated” by the defeat with a landslide. “We are all disappointed, hurt and we did not want our fans to see such a score” but “what this group of players have done, considering where they are domestically, is a major achievement,” said Page. “The boys have been fantastic in the tournament (…), they have a lot of credit for what they have done until tonight“He added.
