Harry Kane seemed to have given England the perfect start to their Group C encounter with Denmark.
Seemed is the word, because when Denmark equalized through Mortenen, England withdrew into their half of the pitch.
A 1-1 draw was enough to keep England in the running at Euro 24 but they have to improve and quickly.
Italy had a night to forget as they lost to Spain by a solitary goal.
Alvaro Morata’s flick-on came off the knee of Calafiori to give Spain the lead in the game. It also ensured that Spain qualify for knock-out stage.
Italy looked a pale shadow of the side that won the Euro’s three years ago. On Thursday night, they were over-run by a Spanish side who were on a different level. Italy will most likely progress from the group stage but Spain look the more likely to go further, prehaps even the final.
