London-based journalist. Slight bias for all things Swedish is entirely my own.

The second best London final to be at today…

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

If it goes to penalties, does Southgate step up and take the fifth to complete his redemption story? #ENGDEN #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

Worth reiterating:

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

That's why they call him "Damsinho" in Denmark. #damsgaard #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

France, Germany and Portugal all knocked out in round of 16. Group of Meh. #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

The more I watch of #ENGvsGER the more I think Denmark has a great chance of making the final. #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

@arsenaloFka Especially when it's about €9 per pint in the stadium.

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

Thankfully the Croatian and Spanish fans -- unlike Danish supporters -- don't throw their beer mugs forward when their team scores. My laptop barely survived the #DEN - #RUS game. #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

The predictable storyline now would be for Unai Simon to save the decisive penalty in a shootout... #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

Well isn't that just the way things are going for Spain at the moment... #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

After saying repeatedly they wouldn't sit back and let #ESP dominate possession, #CRO have done just that so far. Spain has spent most of opening 7 minutes just passing the ball around. #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

Croatia fans are out in force in central Copenhagen. Seem to outnumber Spain supporters by quite a bit. #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

#DEN coach Kasper Hjulmand says he expects captain Simon Kjaer to be fit for the quarterfinal against #CZE

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

That's why they call him "Damsinho" in Denmark. #damsgaard #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

They're playing "You never walk alone" at Parken now. #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

UEFA using the Eriksen shirt again for the pregame ceremony. #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

Looks like there's only a few dozen Russian fans at Parken Stadium. Even the away section is almost exclusively #DEN supporters. #EURO2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

After being discharged from the hospital, Christian Eriksen immediately went to see his Denmark teammates.
"It was really great to see the guys again after the fantastic game they played last night," he said.

[AP Sports @AP_Sports]

Denmark's Christian Eriksen has been discharged from a hospital, nearly a week after collapsing during a match at #Euro2020

The Danish soccer federation says he has been fitted with a device that can function as both a pacemaker and defibrillator.

Well that should send the share price soaring again…

The drinks trend at #Euro2020 continues... 🥤

Russia manager Stanislav Cherchesov is delighted with his bottle of coke 👍

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

Denmark's players being serenaded by the 25,000 fans as if they'd just won the tournament. Massive standing ovation from the entire stadium. #EUROS2020

[Mattias Karén @MattiasKaren]

A Danish fan just threw plastic mug of beer toward Courtois in goal, but missed. It landed with a splash in the goalmouth. #EURO2020
