Bellingham scores, England struggles to beat Serbia

In the early morning of June 17, England defeated Serbia 1-0 in the first match of Group C, EURO 2024 Finals.

In the second half, England continued to play slowly, causing fans to experience moments of anxiety. In the 60th minute, "Three Lions" fans were shocked when Kieran Trippier pushed Mitrovic from behind. The incident happened in the penalty area but the referee refused to refer to the slow-motion video.

Kane didn't make his first mark until the 77th minute. The English striker's header was dangerous, but goalkeeper Dragovic still managed to push the ball against the crossbar, saving Serbia.

In the 83rd minute, Serbia responded with a long-range shot from Vlahovic. Pickford had to show all his skills to help England avoid conceding a goal. The match ended with a minimal victory for coach Southgate and his team.

Thus, in this match, England won 3 points to take the lead in Group C, above Denmark and Slovenia (both with 1 point). In the second match, England will face Denmark, while Slovenia will face Serbia.

Denmark slips to victory against Slovenia in EURO 2024 opening match

Christian Eriksen had a beautiful goal but it was not enough to help Denmark win against Slovenia, in the opening match of Group C of the EURO 2024 finals.

The Danish team started the game better with confident passing. Thanks to good control in the midfield, they quickly pushed up the formation, put pressure on the opponent and created opportunities.

After a 15-minute deficit, Slovenia settled down and began to attack. However, after the first chance from Benjamin Sesko's dangerous long-range shot, Slovenia conceded a goal in the opponent's response.

The Danish players executed a quick throw-in combination before the opponents had time to set up their defense. Jonas Wind touched the ball with his heel to set up Christian Eriksen to open the scoring in the 18th minute.

In the second half, Slovenia's efforts helped them equalize in the 77th minute. Less than a minute after the regretful moment when Sesko's long-range shot hit the post, Slovenia scored. Erik Janza's long-range shot hit the Danish defender and changed direction, leaving goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel completely helpless.

Slovenia’s equalizer added to the excitement of the final minutes. Both teams played aggressively, clearly determined to score and take the three points. However, neither team could achieve their goal and the match ended in a draw.
