Denmark

GROUP B

This yearÂ’s Danes ended their group undefeated but second behind Switzerland, having lost just once since October 2020. They scored 23 times and conceded just six in the last eight fixtures. The Red and Whites understood the tactical approach of former manager Age Hareide, but current coach Kasper Hjulmand has developed their attacking prospects in a better form than their Euro 2016 attempt.

The talent they possess with the likes of the goal keeper Kasper Schmeichel in goal behind veteran defenders Simon Kjaer and Andreas Christensen. Also, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Kasper Dolberg Martin Braithwaite and youngsters such as Mikkel Damsgaard and Andreas Skov Olsen are a competitive mix of players.

STAR PLAYER

The attacking midfielder's move from Tottenham to Inter Milan didn't exactly go as he had initially envisaged in his first year in Italy.However Eriksen has well and truly turned things around over the past three months and he has played his part in the club breaking Juventus' stranglehold on the Serie A title after the Bianconeri claimed the top prize in the previous nine seasons.
