Key events
87 min: Poland are on the attack again and this time Slowinska launches a long range shot but it doesn’t trouble Bay.
85 min: Denmark are fired up now after that goal, they can smell a point on the board and it’s crossed in but popped out for a corner. Thomsen takes the set piece but it’s headed clear by Pajor.
Bruun has had so many chances and it feels deserved for her to be on the scoresheet. It was a peach of a cross that came in and Bruun’s heads it home.
GOAL! Poland 3-2 Denmark (Bruun, 83)
She finally has her goal.
82 min: Poland make another change with Slowinska on for Kamczyk, what a shift she has put in for her nation tonight. Denmark also make a change with Vangsgaard on for Thogersen.
80 min: Denmark win a free kick in a good position. They take it short and Bredgaard then pops it into the area but Poland deal with it easily. They then counter and Nadim is forced to put in a foul, and receives a yellow card, to stop the attack.
78 min: What a perfect response from Poland. They conceded and then Denmark thought they had their equaliser but after a VAR check it was ruled out. Now Poland have restored their two goal lead. A bit of a mad game this one.
Pajor launches the ball into the area, Padilla mishits and it comes to Wiankowska who whallops it home. A lovely move.
GOAL! Poland 3-1 Denmark (Wiankowska, 77)
Wow.
76 min: What a save from Szemik as Thomsen sends in a huge shot, she punches clear to stop Denmark once again.
75 min: Poland win a corner and the delivery is good, it looked like one from the training ground, but Denmark scramble and clear.
73 min: Ignore my nice sentiments about Nadim’s swansong moment. The VAR check was so quick. Denmark are still on top though and so it still feels as though it is coming.
NO GOAL! Poland 2-1 Denmark
It’s been ruled out for offside.
It was scrappy but Denmark won’t care. It kept pinballing in the box and she gets a left footed shot away. In her final game for Denmark, that one will be special for her.
GOAL! Poland 2-2 Denmark (Nadim, 70)
Poetic.
70 min: Bruun was almost in again, that’s her third close effort but she can’t get it out from under her feet.
68 min: Denmark are increasing the pressure as they hunt for the equaliser but Poland still have just enough in the energy stores to repel them, they do look like they’re tiring though so it wouldn’t be surprising if Denmark found a way through.
66 min: Poland make another change with Achcinska off for Jedlinska.
64 min: Nadia Nadim, who has just entered the game, will play her last minutes of international football in this match after having announced she will retire from Denmark duty following this tournament. A great role model and forward has one last dance.
62 min: It will be interesting to see how both teams react to that goal now. So far Poland haven’t shrunk, in fact they have done the opposite and had a chance with Achcinska popping one wide. Hasbo is off for K Holmgaard and Nadim is on for S Holmgaard as Denmark make changes.
Thomsen has a powerful strike and Szemik blocks it with both hands but it bounces over her head and it’s in. A disappointing moment for the keeper who has had a good game other than that blunder.
GOAL! Poland 2-1 Denmark (Thomsen, 60)
There it is.
59 min: Poland make two changes with Kokosz and Wiankowska on for Tomasiak and Matysik.
58 min: A lovely bit of build-up play feeds Thomsen but her effort is well saved by Szemik.
56 min: Bruun wants a penalty as she gets in the area and she is tackled. She feels it’s a foul from Matysik but nothing is given, the Polish defender threw herself at that and it was a good but of defending. It would have been a very soft penalty if it was given.
54 min: Poland win a free kick and Zieniewicz’ delivery sees Bruun head it out for a throw. It’s then rebuffed by the Danes and they come forward with Bredgaard popping in a long range effort but Szemik saves. She concedes a corner but it’s well defended by Poland.
52 min: Poland again have so much space in the midfield to come streaming forward but they see it out for a Denmark throw. A goal feels like its coming.
51 min: Tomasiak has a great run down the left and she battles into the ares. She passes to Padilla who sees it wide, that should have been the third for Poland.
49 min: Poland peel forward as they look to try and secure a historic result. It is one amazing thing to score your first Euros goal and it is another amazing thing to win your first game. Both things could be achieved for Poland this evening but this time they are judged offside. Denmark counter and they get into the box with Bredgaard, who is making her first appearance at the tournament, taking a shot but it’s saved.
47 min: My esteemed colleague Scott Murray has worked out a table for Group C with the scores as they are right now and this is how it looks as it stands:
1. Sweden P3 W3 D0 L0 F7 A1 GD6 Pts 9
2. Germany P3 W2 D0 L1 F5 A4 GD1 Pts 6
3. Poland P3 W1 D0 L2 F2 A5 GD-3 Pts 3
4. Denmark P2 W0 D0 L3 F1 A5 GD-4 Pts 0
Thank you for that Scott.
Back underway: Poland 2-0 Denmark
Can Poland continue their dominance in this match? Or will Denmark fight back? All to come.
What a moment for Poland, it’s one Natalia Padilla will never forget:
Half-time in the other match in this group sees Sweden lead Germany 3-1. For all the updates on that game, read our blog:
Half-time: Poland 2-0 Denmark
Well that was a poor 45 minutes from Denmark. They need to tighten up in defence or Poland could really ramp this score up. The half if have a moment of history with Padilla scoring Poland’s first-ever goal at a women’s Euros.
45 + 2 min: Bruun has another chance and her header is saved well this time by Szemik. She concedes a corner in the process but the delivery is poor.
45 + 1 min: Bruun has a shot and it rattles the cross bar, the closest Denmark have come all game. There are two minutes added.
45 min: Denmark were building but they just falter at the last hurdle, they are so frustrating to watch.
44 min: Pawollek’s delivery is good but Szemik reads it well and she collects.
42 min: Denmark have a corner after a loose pass from Tomasiak.
40 min: Denmark’s manager Andrée Jeglertz is looking so frustrated on the touchline and it’s clear to see why. His team have absolutely nothing going in this match and if the scoreline remains as it is, Denmark will end this tournament with no points.
38 min: Poland are in total control of this game at the moment, Denmark have not threaded more than a few passes together since Harder went off with injury.
36 min: You do have to feel for Poland, if they found themselves in a different group they may have got through but Germany and Sweden just proved too strong. In that game Sweden are winning 3-1 and Carlotta Wamser has been sent off for a deliberate handball.
