Inside of two minutes and Denmark scores. Wow.

The errant ball near the area from Denayer was inexplicable and has cost Sweden an early goal. Seized on by Poulson (not even seized really, it was laid there on a plate for him)

10 minutes into the match and it comes to a halt to pay tribute to Eric Christan who collapsed in Denmark's first match. The tribute is loud and spirited.

Yes, his hospital is very close by and he maybe even heard it through the air.

Belgium so far just can't find a key on their bunch that fits any of the locks that Denmark has installed.

Well, Doc, Belgium with 51% first half possession means nothing. They've hardly had a sniff. Perhaps de Bruyne will come off the bench. They need something to kick the lethargy out of them.

Hard to believe the score line. This is the "golden generation" of Belgium at work? Hard to believe de Bruyne will be fit to play too. He broke an orbital in the Chelsea match didn't he?

Lukaku to de Bruyne to Hazard and Belgium has equalized six minutes into the second half.
Hard to see the momentum changing now.

71st minute and it's de Bruyne's turn. Some nice passing finds him on the left hand side where he uses his left foot to put a beauty past the keeper.
Denmark 1 - 2 Belgium

Coisty is starting to get on my tits. Goes totally OTT at times.

Yes, and the commentator here just joked if he had de Bruyne's injuries he'd want six months in hospital. The mother of all transformations from first half to second. But it's not over yet as Cornelius sends in a low cross which Braithwaite just can't connect with. He was well marshalled anyway by a Belgian defender who was hassling him as the ball came in.

Look at that, headed off the bar by Braithwaite, Courtois nowhere with 3 minutes of normal time left. Big chance for the leveller there.

Wow, this game has been thoroughly enjoyable. A very spirited effort by Denmark to find their way back after great team effort goals by Belgium. But it looks like Denmark may not get a draw. 5 mins.

Despite some valiant tries by Denmark, it ends 2 - 1 Belgium. But Denmark are not eliminated yet, all depends on round three of the group.
