I believe this is Finland's first ever game at a major tournament. What a traumatic thing to experience on their first appearance, after what was I presume a hugely celebratory build up.
Day 2: Wales vs Switzerland | Denmark vs Finland | Belgium vs Russia

#NotForEveryoneRussians booing is the type of thing that will fire Lukaku up, hattrick incoming
Possibly. Or just another Schmeichel error.
This team is not very good without Eriksen. A lot of water carriers in midfield and out wide like Højberg, Delaney and Poulsen but no stand out technical talent.
Why is this tournament being played in so many cities, and half of the teams seem to be at home?
Italy in italy, Russia in Russia, Denmark in Denmark etc.

We don't have the Belgium Russia match available in the Rep of Ireland currently then do we?
Denmark: its like watching United play
Why?
Yes and it's not like only Denmark experienced the events earlier. No doubt it will have had a big impact on the Fins too.
First game and first goal. What should have been an iconic moment.
How on earth did Russia get to host games here when they had the last World Cup?!
With their first shot
I know it's been a horrible ordeal to Eriksen but these events are very rare.
That + Baku hosting is absolutely baffling.
It's on the RTE news channel
Harsh on United. Once I went to watch Denmark play in the winter with the temperature inside the stadium at -18. It was so boring and I got so black out drunk that I still don't remember much of the next 2 days. My mate tells me I broke a bar chair sometime during the night.
The fact that there's an MLS player currently on the pitch in Euro 2020 blows my mind (Jukka Raitala for Finland). Just typing this up feels weird to me.
We have a contingent that boo the fecking knee mate.
I wonder if Denmark players really wanted the game to continue. I mean if Eriksen told them to do so there was no other option
It's a one-off to celebrate 60 years of the the tournament or something.
So it is, thanks!
Pen!
Nothing in that, scandalous ref.
That's not a penalty.
Never a penalty in 10 million years. Poulsen should be booked.
Yes pen! Come on Denmark. At least a draw today
Poulsen is such a diving cnut. He does that in Bundesliga all the time.
Eh that's very, very soft.
That is a pen
To be in a better state of mind? I can't believe after watching someone they know almost die that they can put in their best performance.
No doubt, they are affected by it. The enthusiasm will be completely gone etc.
His knee caught poulsons ankle
Looks like a terrible dive to be fair.
there was not even any contact
Yeah that's not but I'm not gonna cry about this one
Pathetic decision.
World's softest pen.
Typical Finland scoring after being dominated by a while.
I hope Denmark at least pass group stage, i believe Eriksen won't be able to play the Euro, and he is their best player. That's a huge loss.

Oof.. very very late dive
First replay it looked a dive but he got him with his knee
Shocking decision. Sympathy vote from the ref.
