    To make three substitutions and then have a set piece which is just pure carnage. The one substitution they needed to make which came too late for them.

    It was emotional to make three subs at that point and Boye made a big impact when she came on from the bench. She should have come on a bit earlier.

  6. 'Triple substitution more of an emotional response'published at 22:04 British Summer Time 8 July 2022

    I question whether it was more of an emotional response from Lars Sondergaard [to make three changes early in the second half]. He obviously had half-time to address his team and things weren't going well. But they were still in the game.

    The came out in the second half and performed liked they did which was again poor. I think it was an emotional response as they didn't do what was asked and made the triple change.

    Denmark need to watch this game again. They need to be honest with each other, talk with one another and then focus on the next game.

    Scott Booth

    Germany have put body after body in front of Denmark players, got to the ball first and created chances. They should have had more goals in the first half, but they've had a bit of everything tonight.

    Classic from Alexandra Popp with a diving header - probably the best player I have ever seen in my career who can head the ball on the move. She must be feeling really emotional right now with the journey she has been on.

    First European Championship, first goal for her.

    This has been a faultless start to the tournament by Germany that sends out a message to their rivals.

    They've not been a fixture in finals for a little while now but they are determined to go all the way this time.

    That's what football's all about. Alexandra Popp had injury after injury and failed to get to this championship previously. Talk about arriving at the right time! She was never going to miss that. It just shows that if you keep working hard, you'll get your chance. You could see how emotional she was.

    Alexandra Popp

    Another goal for Germany and an emotional one for Alexandra Popp!

    Injuries had denied her previous appearances at a Euros but what a moment as the substitute heads home on her debut.

    She drops to the floor and is swamped by her team-mates. Germany wrap this up in style.
