FIFA World Cup 2018 Live Score, Denmark vs Australia

New Delhi:

It is matchday two in Group C of the FIFA World Cup 2018 as Denmark and Australia go head to head at the Cosmos Arena in Samara. 

Denmark were at times on the ropes against Peru in their opening match, but came away with a 1-0 win. Coach Age Hareide was happy with his team's hardwork, but also added that he thought they looked overwhelmed by the mega occasion and at time even 'afraid'. 

The Costa Ricans finished second in the CONCACAF WC qualifying group after a decent campaign (W4, D4, L2). After suffering a loss in their opening game to Serbia - thanks to a sublime free kick by Aleksandar Kolarov - a loss for Oscar Ramírez’s men here would shatter their hopes of qualifying for the last 16.
