McGree’s attempt on goal is blocked. Australia’s first meaningful shot at the target. Riley McGree shoots from the edge of the penalty area, but the ball is intercepted by the Danish goalkeeper.

A goal by Mathew Leckie has given Australia the lead! An excellent solo run by him in vast space. The Danish defence was caught napping. He then precisely places the ball in the distant corner.

Jesper Lindstrom attempts to score from the perimeter of the penalty area, but his shot is blocked by the Australian defence.

Can Denmark perform a miracle from this location? They must score two goals in order to avoid elimination. Australia’s advancement to the round of 16 currently appears assured.
