Watkins commended Denmark’s defensive resilience, acknowledging their challenge on a challenging pitch.
Watkins highlighted the positives of England’s unbeaten run in the tournament so far, following the 1-1 draw with Denmark. Captain Harry Kane initially put the Three Lions ahead, only for Morten Hjulmand to equalize with a stunning long-range strike. Watkins praised the opposition’s performance and emphasized the importance of remaining unbeaten.
