Great job, Denmark!!!!

What an exciting game.

I'm not Danish, but I was rooting for them so earnestly after the trauma of Eriksen's cardiac arrest on the field in the first game, and then the narrow loss in the second game after the electrifying goal barely 90 seconds into the first half.

Denmark put in the first 2 goals, and then Russia scored on a PK. The Danes went on to put in 2 more to seal the deal.

It was exhilarating.

Everybody's favourite minnows Wales (no pun intended) against the team who nearly lost a player to cardiac arrest in their opener. Off-hand, I'd say Denmark have the better narrative.
