Kasper Dolberg marcó un doblete ante Gales y cada vez que celebró su pelo se suspendió en el aire, en una forma que recuerda el mito griego de Medusa y sus serpientes, las que convertían en piedra a todos quienes la miraran.
La imagen, además, tiene un vínculo con lo que pasó en el campo. Dinamarca arrolló a una selección galesa que parecía tener estatuas de piedra en su defensa.
In the immediate aftermath of Christian Eriksen’s collapse after suffering cardiac arrest in Denmark’s Euro 2020 opener against Finland, Danish captain Simon Kjær earned admiration around the globe for his actions.
La selección nacional de Venezuela llegó a esta Copa América muy herida. Desde semanas atrás, se sabía que no iban a poder contar, por lesión, con sus seis (sí, medio equipo) mejores jugadores para la doble fecha de Eliminatorias al Mundial, previo a la Copa América.

With a 1-0 victory over Ukraine at the National Arena in Bucharest, Romania on Monday, Austria punched its ticket to the Euro 2020 Round of 16 as Group C runner-up, meaning that they’ll play Italy on Saturday at Wembley Stadium in London.
Ukraine finishes third in the group, so they now face a nervous wait to see if they sneak into the knockout rounds as one of the four best third-place teams. History says they won’t, as three points and a goal difference of —1 wouldn’t have been enough at Euro 2016.

Looking at North Macedonia's obscure warmups heading into its match against Ukraine, there is no surprise it later lost. As fun as it looked, with the players racing up the pitch and passing the ball between each other using upturned cones, it didn't seem like the appropriate warmup for the Euro 2020 Group C match on Thursday.

Joel Pohjanpalo thought he had given the Finns the lead in the fifth minute but his powerful header was ruled out for offside after a VAR review, and the rest of the first half was played at a high tempo.
Joel Pohjanpalo thought he had his second goal of the tournament for Finland....
Was it the 67,000 in attendance? The Coca-Cola bottles from the night before? Cristiano Ronaldo had an extremely uncharacteristic miss in Portugal’s 3-0 opening group game victory. This Ronaldo miss vs. Hungary will likely be forgotten after his second half heroics.
