Eriksen: This time my story is different
For Christian Eriksen, Denmark’s opening game at this year’s European Championship was a much happier occasion than in 2021: “I do think this time in the Euros, my story is very different compared to last time,” he said.
“I did have in mind that I hadn’t scored at the Euros, so obviously that was on my mind, but nothing else than football was on my mind. Really just happy to help the team with the first goal.
“Obviously, in the end, there would have been a different story if we had the three points. We would also be a lot happier and a lot more confident. But I think it’s a wake up call for us to go into the next game.”

Kek: The result is ‘realistic’
Slovenia are still waiting for their first win at a Euros finals. The country’s only other appearance was in 2000, when they drew two of their three games and didn’t make it out of the group stage.
Manager Matja Kek said: “I think the result is realistic. Maybe we’ve shown a bit too much respect in the first half, and then we managed to break free in the second half, and our play looked a lot better.
“This is definitely a match that showed me how much room for improvement we still have. We had a great scene for our first game, and this incredible energy from the stands was a plus to deal with the situation.”
