Arena Frankfurt

Full time! Denmark 1-1 England

England miss the chance to seal their place in the knockouts. Kane opened his Euro 2024 account, but Denmark responded in kind and were good value for the point in the end. All four teams can still advance from the group, heading into the final round of fixtures in the section.

Full-time

90'

FOUR additional minutes

Will we see more late Group C drama, after Serbia equalised against Slovenia with virtually the last kick of the game in the early kick-off?

88'

As it stands

England will move onto four points, with Denmark and Slovenia on two apiece, and Serbia on one. The Three Lions face Slovenia on Matchday 3, while Denmark take on Serbia.

Christian Nörgaard

Wide!

Denmark attack again with Hojbjerg, who sends a swerving effort wide of Pickford's far post. Some pretty desperate England defending in the build-up...

Routine for the keeper

Hojbjerg with a speculative effort from range. It whistles through a ruck of bodies and into the arms of Pickford.

Yellow card

Joakim Mæhle

Watkins!

The England sub is involved immediately, connecting with a pass into the channel and firing at the on-rushing Schmeichel from a tight angle.

70'

Triple change

Southgate sends on the cavalry. These changes should give his side more oomph at width in the final third. His goal aside, Kane was unable to get into the game.

Only five Bundesliga goals for Leipzig's Poulsen in 2023/24, but his physicality will cause problems for the England defence.

Proceed with caution

Not quite the desired impact as Gallagher goes into the book for a late challenge on ex-Gladbach defender Christensen.

Post!

Foden receives a pass from the right, shifts goalwards and drives a shot against the post from 20 yards. Schmeichel was at full stretch...

Gallagher's on in the England midfield. He registered five goals and seven assists for Chelsea in the 2023/24 English Premier League.

Radar off

Alexander-Arnold has time and space as England cross halfway on the counter, but his attempted pass is behind the run of Foden.

46'

Off we go again!

No changes in Frankfurt. A win for either side will take them top of Group C.

Kick-off!

Half-time! Denmark 1-1 England

Phil Foden sends a shot over as the half comes to a close in Frankfurt. Kane gave England the lead, but a stunner from Hjulmand brought Denmark deservedly level, and they've been the better side ever since.

Half-time

41'

England attack

Foden has Kane running ahead of him between two Denmark defenders, but goes it alone and sends a tame effort straight at Schmeichel from outside the box.

38'

All Denmark

England are being pegged back as Vestergaard meets another corner, the defender heading wide at the far post. This feels like a pivotal spell in the game...

35'

What a hit!

Denmark's persistence is rewarded. Kane's loose clearance is picked up by Hjulmand, who hammers an unstoppable 25-yard strike into the bottom corner. Game on in Frankfurt!

34'

Morten Hjulmand

GOAL!

1:1

32'

Denied!

Eriksen tees up Wind this time, but Guéhi makes a crucial sliding challenge to direct the Wolfsburg forward's effort over. Vestergaard heads over from the resultant corner, before the whistle sounds for an infringement.

29'

Denmark knocking

Eriksen makes a nuisance of himself in the England area. Hojlund tries to back-heel the midfielder's cut-back goalwards, but it's blocked. Alexander-Arnold then races back to stop a red shirt doing anything meaningful with the loose ball.

27'

Yellow card

Jannik Vestergaard

24'

Half chance

The Wolfsburg striker meets a cross from the right, but doesn't make a full connection with has attempted downward header, making for a routine Pickford save.

22'

Wake-up call

Denmark have responded well to going behind. They're moving the ball with real poise in front of the England penalty area.

18'

Kane with the breakthrough!

There is it! Walker skips past Christensen and crosses low into the six-yard box. It wriggles away from Saka but not Kane, who slots it home with his left foot.

18'

Harry Kane

GOAL!

0:1

17'

Three Lions press

Good spell for England, this. Every Denmark player is back in their own half.

13'

Foden!

Magic feet from Foden, who shifts this way and that before scooping over from just inside the Denmark area.

10'

Midfield muscle

Bellingham goes to ground under a strong but fair Hojbjerg challenge. That's going to be a tasty battle between the ex-Dortmund and Bayern midfielders.

Walker concern

The England right-back slips as he goes to cross a ball. Worrying moment for Southgate, but the Man City man looks like he'll just need a change of boots.

Confident

Denmark have started well. They've already enjoyed some prolonged passing spells.

Here we go!

After a moment's reflection in memory of former UEFA General Secretary and CEO, Gerhard Aigner, who passed away earlier today, the game gets under way.

Kick-off!

Sea of red and white

Quite the backdrop as the two nations belt out their respective anthems. Kick-off is moments away...

1:30

Watch: The best of Jonas Wind

The Denmark striker scored 11 Bundesliga goals for Wolfsburg in 2023/24, 25 fewer than Kane, but he can still be a real threat on his day.

Kasper Schmeichel, watch out!

Top dogs?

England will join Germany in the knockouts with a win. Slovenia and Serbia drew 1-1 in the group's other Matchday 2 fixture, so Southgate's side will even seal top spot with a game to spare.

More on those teams

Wolfsburg's Joakim Mæhle starts at right-back, with Alexander Bah dropping out in the only Denmark change. Wolfsburg teammate Jonas Wind is also involved from the off. Bayern No.9 Kane captains an unchanged England, meanwhile.

Watch: Jude Bellingham, made in the Bundesliga

England's star midfielder and the La Liga Player of the Season honed his craft at Dortmund, making 92 Bundesliga appearances. He scored two of his 12 Bundesliga goals in Frankfurt - just saying...

3:55

Watch: Harry Kane under the tactical microscope

The England captain didn't score against Serbia, but he couldn't have wished for a much better debut season with Bayern Munich. Needless to say, the Danes will have their hands full.
