World Cup: Daily update from day 2 in Qatar

Robert Lewandowski missed a penalty as Poland and Mexico played out a goalless draw in Group C of the World Cup in Qatar.

Mexico dominated the first half but could not break the deadlock at Stadium 974, with Poland’s star striker Lewandowski cutting a frustrated figure.

But the Barcelona forward was handed a golden opportunity in the second half when he was fouled in the box, only to see his penalty saved by Mexico goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa.

With Saudi Arabia stunning Argentina in the opening game, it leaves Group C wide open ahead of the second round of fixtures. Mexico will play Argentina next while Poland face Saudi Arabia.

Denmark 0-0 Tunisia

67 mins: Slimane comes OFF for Tunisia, with Sliti replacing him.

Tempo of the game has gone down a notch here... will we get a late winner?

Denmark 0-0 Tunisia

64 mins: Denmark making a triple-change here!

Simon Kjaer is off, passing the captain’s armband to Christian Eriksen.

Jensen, Cornelius and Lindstrom ON; Dolberg and Skov Olsen the other men OFF.

Denmark 0-0 Tunisia

60 mins: Denmark have livened up suddenly.

Skov Olsen looks to be the man who makes things happen - his cross is only just headed behind by a Tunisia defender.

Denmark can’t win the first ball at the corner though...

Denmark 0-0 Tunisia

55 mins: Andreas Skov Olsen thinks he’s given Denmark the lead as he strikes home... but there’s an offside earlier in the build-up! It is clear, in fairness.

A let-off for Tunisia!

Denmark 0-0 Tunisia

53 mins: Denmark can’t clear their lines at the moment!

Two corners in a row have led to Tunisia shots deflected behind... can the Africans find a way through?

The third corner of the bunch is poor, not beating the first man.

Denmark 0-0 Tunisia

51 mins: Aïssa Laïdouni has been the star man so far! He breaks terrifically through on goal after a one-two but he just runs out of steam as he attempts to play it across for a team-mate!

Tunisia again threatening....

Denmark 0-0 Tunisia

50 mins: Tunisia have started this half how they left off - their intensity remains high while Denmark struggle to fashion a clear opening!

Kieran Jackson22 November 2022 14:11

Denmark 0-0 Tunisia

SECOND-HALF: No changes at the break - we’re back underway at the Education City Stadium!

Argentina 1-2 Saudi Arabia:

The Saudis just can’t resist!

Kieran Jackson22 November 2022 14:07

Denmark 0-0 Tunisia

HALF-TIME: All-square at the break at the Education City Stadium - and Tunisia will be the happier of the two teams!

Denmark haven’t quite clicked so far and they can thank Kasper Schmeichel for not being behind after that terrific save late on in the half.

Work to do for last year’s European Championships semi-finalists!
