Czech Republic vs Denmark Match Preview
The last direct match between the Czech Republic and Denmark took place in 2016, in a friendly match played at Mlada Boleslav and ended in a 1-1 draw. It is interesting that the two national teams will face for the second time in a row in the Euro quarterfinals, after the Euro 2004 clash.
Czech Republic:
The presence of the Czech Republic in the quarterfinals is also part of the surprises of Euro 2020. In the eighth finals, the Czech Republic won 2-0, the Dutch national football team, after a very good game. The match was decided in the second half, when the Dutch defender Mathias de Ligt took the red card and left his team inferior. Immediately after this advantage, the Czech Republic opened the scoring in the 68th minute and four minutes later doubled its advantage.
Denmark:
Also, the presence of the Danish national team in the quarterfinals of Euro 2020, is a surprise considering how the tournament for the white-red national team started. The Nordics started Euro 2020 with a surprising and totally undeserved defeat with Finland, score 1-0. In the second group game, Denmark lost to Belgium 2-1. In the last two games, however, Denmark showed an offensive appetite, scoring eight goals, in the victories with Russia, score 4-1 and Wales, score 4-0 in the eighth.
