IT WAS GREAT SHAKES IN THE FIRST-HALF BETWEEN DENMARK VS ENGLAND YESTERDAY, WITH HARRY KANE SCORING AN ABSOLUTE BEAUTY AT 18 MINS., AND THE DANISH TEAM PROVING JUST HOW FEISTY THEY WERE WITH AN UNEXPECTED LONG-RANGE GOAL FROM MORTEN HJULMAND AT 34 MINS. BUT IN THE SECOND-HALF ENGLAND LOOKED A LITTLE TIRED, AND ALTHOUGH THERE WERE A TOTAL OF 28 EXCITING FURTHER SHOTS DURING THE MATCH, WITH 12 SHOTS ON TARGET, (BETWEEN BOTH TEAMS), NOTHING ACTUALLY REACHED THE BACK OF THE NET. (BUT LOT’S OF ACTION TO FEAST YOUR EYE’S UPON NEVERTHELESS!) IT MUST BE HARD TO CONSISTENTLY PLAY AT THE TOP OF YOUR GAME, REST, TRAIN AND REPEAT! FATIGUE IS BOUND TO SET IN EVENTUALLY (NO MATTER HOW MUCH PICKLE JUICE ONE DRINKS!) BUT THERE IS STILL A LONG WAY TO GO – AND UNFORTUNATELY FOR THE ENGLAND...
