Heat Wilts Players but Not Fans' Spirit at Sweden-Denmark Euros Clash

  • On Friday, Sweden defeated Denmark 1-0 at the Stade de Geneve in the opening Group C game of the Women’s European Championship.
  • The match unfolded under 30-degree Celsius heat, causing multiple stoppages for players to hydrate, which affected performance amid intense fan support.
  • Filippa Angeldahl scored the sole goal in the 55th minute for Sweden after a one-two with Kosovare Asllani and was named player of the match.
  • Denmark mounted 10 attempts, nearly half Sweden’s total, nearly equalizing in the 81st minute when Pernille Harder’s shot hit the crossbar after a pass from Frederikke Thogersen.
  • Denmark defender Stine Ballisager acknowledged the difficulty of the loss but emphasized carrying defensive strengths into their next match against eight-time champions Germany, while Sweden prepare to face Poland.
