Poland vs Netherlands LIVE: Euro 2024 stream, final score and updates

Must read

Gareth Southgate calls Harry Kane ‘old’ ahead of England’s first match of Euros

Netherlands beat Poland to begin day three at Euro 2024 in exciting fashion, with Wout Weghorst scoring the late winner after the Dutch were forced to come from behind.

Despite starting strongly, Ronald Koeman’s side conceded the opener through Adam Buksa’s header, before Cody Gakpo – the standout performer in the first half – equalised via a big deflection. The second 45 minutes was a more even affair until the strength in depth on Netherlands’ bench started to show, and Weghorst netted the winner a few minutes from full time.

Matches against Austria and France follow this clash for each nation, but the Dutch have taken a huge step forward, while Poland will hope Robert Lewandowski returns to full fitness soon. Follow the live blog below for the Poland vs Netherlands reaction – plus news ahead of Sunday’s other games:

Slovenia 0-1 Denmark, 23 minutes

Slovenia have woken up a touch, getting their midfield pair of Timi Max Elsnink and Adam Gnezda Cerin on the ball. Petar Stojanovic has looked enterprising so far – more usually a right-back, he’s playing on the edge of the midfield four and nearly latches on to a diagonal.

Slovenia 0-1 Denmark, 20 minutes

Denmark merited that opener – they’ve completely controlled the flow of this first half so far. Slovenia just switched off momentarily after the ball went out of play, but full credit to the Danes for the excellence of execution thereafter.

GOAL! Slovenia 0-1 DENMARK (Christian Eriksen, 17 minutes)

What a moment for Christian Eriksen!

Denmark are in front! And it’s a beautifully constructed goal with no more deserving scorer. A quick throw-in to Jonas Wind is intelligently and adroitly flicked on by the striker’s heel, allowing Eriksen to chest it down and direct a fine finish into the far corner. Away he wheels to be embraced by his team mates – 1100 days after being brought back to life, Eriksen is on the scoresheet at a Euros.

Slovenia 0-0 Denmark, 16 minutes

Jaka Bijol lumberjacks the legs of Jonas Wind with a rather nasty challenge for which the centre half is rather fortunate not to be punished beyond a free kick. Sandro Scharer has a word.

Close! Nearly something from nothing from Benjamin Sesko, turning on the ball 30 yards out and generating remarkable power in his snapshot. Kasper Schmiechel is beaten; so, fortunately for the goalkeeper, is his right-hand post.

Slovenia 0-0 Denmark, 13 minutes

The shapes are good from Denmark, the blond bonces of Morten Hjulmand and Viktor Kristiansen bouncing about as the pair trade passes up the left. Slovenia holding firm for now but struggling mightily to escape their own territory.

Slovenia 0-0 Denmark, 11 minutes

A slightly better ball from Christian Eriksen as the midfielder delivers a free kick from about 40 yards out on the angle. Andreas Christensen flicks it over the bar, throwing his head back with a little too much oomph.

Slovenia 0-0 Denmark, 9 minutes

Zippy passing from Denmark’s midfield three and Christian Eriksen lifts a dainty pass to Rasmus Hojlund. Out to the right the centre forward looks, and Alexander Bah’s drive is blocked behind. Corner kick.

Christian Eriksen will swing it in…tame. Headed away.

Slovenia 0-0 Denmark, 7 minutes

Jonas Wind is released in behind the Slovenia back four, but the forward miscontrols, affording Jaka Bijol the chance to recover. The flag was up, regardless, though Wind will be disappointed with his touch.

1718553958

Slovenia 0-0 Denmark, 6 minutes

A little better from the Slovenes, first Peter Stojanovic and then Andraz Sporar toting the ball up the right. Benjamin Sesko is a lonely target in the box, though, and Denmark cut out the cross in comfort.

Slovenia 0-0 Denmark, 5 minutes

A rare misstep in possession from Morten Hjlumand, but the midfielder steps in firmly to atone. Slovenia have barely had a sniff of the ball so far; Denmark’s back three have the halfway line on their heels.
