Thomas Delaney opened the scoring for Denmark with a free header in the fifth minute and Kasper Dolberg doubled the advantage just before the halftime break by converting a Joakim Maehle cross in the box.
Patrik Schick scored his fifth goal of the competition, tying Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo for the Golden Boot lead, four minutes into the second half to cut the Denmark lead to one.
