The team favored to win had an early advantage with a goal from their captain, Harry Kane. However, Denmark’s Morten Hjulmand scored an impressive long-range goal, leveling the score.
The match began with England attacking, and Kane scored easily after Kyle Walker took the ball from Victor Kristiansen and crossed it, leading to Kane’s goal after a few bounces.

Denmark responded with a powerful shot from Hjulmand before halftime, which hit the post and went in from over 30 yards, making it even. The teams were tied at halftime and didn’t make much progress in the second half.
Phil Foden, named Premier League player of the year, hit the post for England, but no more goals were scored, and the match ended in a draw.
England’s coach, Southgate, showed his disappointment with the ineffective offense by replacing Foden, Kane, and Bukayo Saka with Eberechi Eze, Ollie Watkins, and Jarrod Bowen. However, these substitutes also couldn’t get past Denmark’s strong defense.
