Czech Republic v Denmark Tipp & Quoten, 03.07.2021 – 18:00
The soccer national teams of the Czech Republic and Denmark will compete in the third European Championship quarter-finals at the Olympiastadion Baku on the early Saturday evening, 03.07.2021 at 6 p.m. After a mediocre group stage in the eighth-final, the Reprezentace beat surprisingly favoured Dutchmen and is now fully deserved in the round of the last eight teams. The Scandinavians had a lighter opponent with Wales in the European Championship final and beat the Dragons significantly. After the goal-rich last group game against Russia, Danish Dynamite also showed offensive strength in the knockout round.

The national team of Jaroslav Silhavy was immediately under pressure against the Netherlands. Oranje came again and again to good opportunities through de Ligt (8th) and Dumfries (13th), especially via the outer railways. But as soon as the Reprezentace pushed their five defense bolts further forward, the Dutch made themselves difficult. So the Czechs had good chances to lead through Soucek (22nd) and Schick (28th). After half an hour, the European Championship final was a duel at eye level. De Ligt cleared up a huge chance of Barak (38th) at the last moment. On the other side van Aanholt withdrew miserably, but was anyway in the offside (45. +2). After a restart, the team had a 1-0 lead, but Malen failed in the one-on-one game against Czech keeper Vaclik (52nd). A few moments later, de Ligt had to leave the pitch prematurely due to a handball (55th, Red Card). In power play the reprezentace became stronger and stronger and then went through a header of Holes with 1:0 in the lead (68th). The favourite did not come into play at all in the final phase. The Czech Republic then made everything clear with the 2-0 by Schick (80th).
The Silhavy-Elf celebrated in the eighth finals against Holland only the second victory in the European Championship. During the preliminary round there was a 2-0 victory directly in the opening game against Scotland. This was followed by a 1-1 victory over Croatia and the first defeat against England in the last group match (0-1). The Eastern Europeans nevertheless qualified as one of the fourth best group thirds for the knockout round. With the entry into the European Championship quarter-finals, the Czech Republic has forgotten about the EURO 2016. Five years ago, after the preliminary round, they were eliminated without a win – Spain (0:1), Croatia (2:2), Turkey (0:2).
Patrik Schick from the Bundesliga club Bayer Leverkusen is the best scorer in the Czech national jersey with four goals. The striker thus scored almost all tournament goals (5) for his country. Tomas Holes (Slavia Prag) scored for the first time in the eighth finals against Holland.
Captain Vladimir Darida (Hertha BSC) is still injured and therefore questionable for the upcoming quarter-finals against Denmark.

Danish Dynamite took around ten minutes to find their way into the game against Wales. Welsh superstar Gareth Bale had the first chance to take the lead in the 10th minute. After that, the Danes took more and more control of the game. Dolberg, who played as a replacement for the injured Poulsen, scored with the first opportunity to score 1-0 for the Scandinavians (27th). Kasper Hjulmand’s national team came out on top after scoring the leading goal and was filled with joy. The Dragons were shocked and had problems keeping the strong Damsgaard at bay. Nevertheless, the next chance came shortly before the intermission whistle by Maehle (45th +1). In the second period Dolberg then struck a second time and increased for Denmark to 2:0 (48th). The island kickers showed more effort than in the first 45 minutes. However, James (59th) and Allen (63rd) missed the opportunity to score. More dangerous were the northern Europeans, who by Jensen set almost 3:0 (66th). Wales remained pale again and especially Bale had a bad day. In the last minutes of the match all the dams in Amsterdam broke and the Welsh surrendered to their fate. Two minutes before the end of the regular season Maehle scored to the decisive 3-0 (88th) and in the overtime Braithwaite also scored to the 4-0 score for Denmark (94th).
The Hjulmand team was almost out of the final round after the first two days of the European Championship group B – Finland (0:1), Belgium (1:2), before the goal festival in the last group match against Russia (4:1) opened the door to the eighth finals. With three points, it was just enough as one of the fourth best group thirds for the round of the last 16 teams. He then scored four goals against Wales and moved into the quarter-finals in the European Championship final. At EURO 2016, the Scandinavians were not even there at all and drove out prematurely at the European Championships 2012 after the opening victory against Holland (1:0) and two defeats against Portugal (2:3) and Germany (1:2).
The European champion in 1992 scored the most goals in the final round together with Italy (9). The three players Joakim Maehle (Atalanta Bergamo), Kasper Dolberg (Nice) and Yussuf Poulsen (RB Leipzig) each scored twice and are the most accurate players in the national jersey.
Yussuf Poulsen is also questionable for the European Championship quarter-finals against the Czech Republic with thigh problems. Danish superstar Christian Eriksen (heart problems) will certainly be missing.

Denmark is the slight favourite against the Czech Republic on paper, but on the pitch we expect a balanced European Championship quarter-final, which both national teams can win. The Reprezentace was able to take a favourite for the title out of the race against Holland and at the same time maintained the dream of 1996. At that time, the Czechs were in the European Championship final against Germany and lost 1:2 after extra time by the first and last Golden Goal in history. After a poor start into the EURO, the Scandinavians have now earned their way into the round of the last eight teams and, after two goalscoring European Championship games against Russia (4:1) and Wales (4:0), have finally made quite an alarm. The 4-0 victory over Wales came 29 years after the triumph over Germany in the 1992 European Championship final. We entrust both national teams with the semi-finals and tap on a goal-rich duel in Baku, which is only decided in overtime or on a penalty shootout.
