Missed the goal, just went to the kitchen and they scored, the non crowd noise doesn't help

Something seems off about this game to me, but I can't put my finger on it!

It's like the match has been pre-recorded or something... I know it hasn't been but something isn't right

They don't seem very enthusiastic. The atmosphere feels so flat.

I know what you mean @FootballisComingHome

It's too quiet.

Empty stadium and the few fans that are there are far from the pitch, the noise seems artificial, just missing an atmosphere

Agree, after having crowds back in they are noticeable absent

Fiddlersgreen · 03/07/2021 18:29

There is only around 10,000 fans there apparently. I assume that’s due to it being in Baku

According to the BBC website there are less than 2,000 fans of both teams combined in the 60,000-seater stadium

Is Soucek a rugby player moonlighting?

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 03/07/2021 18:42

security guard to fan ratio is definitely way off

I can't get into this match at all. There's something too uncanny about it for me

I'm pleased Denmark are through, but that was such a dull game.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 03/07/2021 18:58

I really hope England is in an all white kit!
Well done Denmark!!
