Thoughts on the game last night.
Good start, really went for them in the first 15 mins, then Denmark came back into it encouraged by some sloppy play from Pickford and England. Their goal was terrific, best freekick of the tournament although Pickfords positioning wasn't great. England then lost their composure for a few minutes understandably but managed to gain their composure and push on just before half time which lead to the equaliser. Second half England grew stronger and stronger and from 70 mins they dominated, and probably should have won it in normal time but wasn't to be. That continued into extra time and although a soft penalty England deserved to take the lead as they continued to press. IMO it was a dangerous call by Southgate to sit back in the second half of extra time, and you could see Southgate urging the team to defend higher up the pitch as the Danes gave it one last push. I personally would have liked England to have got a third as they had very good opportunities in the last 2 mins but they saw it through. Really pleased for the players. Sterling was unplayable at times and terrified their defenders in the box. Bad luck for Jack, I thought it was an overly negative substitution that instead of shoring up the team actually made us more vulnerable but they saw it through.
