Denmark paid for their lack of forcefulness and ended up sharing points with Slovenia in their debut in the Euro Cup. The Danish team won it with an emotional goal from Christian Eriksen, who returned to action in the national team tournament after the cardiac arrest suffered in the last edition, but in the end Erik Janza tied it 1-1.
It was a dream comeback for Eriksen, 1,100 days after the episode that had shocked the football world at Euro 2020. Slovenia slept on a side kick and Wind assisted the Manchester United man with a cue, who did not forgive good old Oblak.
However, from then on the Danes began to squander scoring chances and they failed to translate the domain into the result. Little by little, Slovenia began to gain confidence and cheer up.
Minutes after Hojlund missed the second one-on-one with Oblak, a corner kick in favor of Slovenia led to Janza, who immediately lit the match: A detour in the path upset goalkeeper Schmeichel and the ball entered the far post.
