FIN vs RUS preview

While Denmark's midfielder Christian Eriksen grabbed all the headlines for his terrifying collapse in Finland's first Euro 2020 game, the Finnish put up an impressive performance. Joel Pohjanpalo's goal was enough to secure three points for Markku Kanerva's side as Finland beat Denmark 1-0. As a result of that win, Finland climbed up to second place in the Group B standings with three points, level on points with leaders Belgium who have a better goal difference.

On the other hand, Russia suffered a 3-0 thrashing against world number one Belgium in their opening Euro 2020 game. A brace from Romelu Lukaku and another goal from Thomas Meunier was enough to secure all three points for Roberto Martinez's side. If Russia are to make it past the group stage they will need a strong performance against Finland, who will be buzzing with confidence.
