Denmark beat Wales 2-0 in the UEFA Liga das Nações. It was a two-goal home win on the official scoreline, with Denmark taking both of the goals and Wales none, in a match that produced three yellow cards and no sendings-off.

Match Summary

Denmark finished 2-0 winners at home against Wales. The first half's confirmed flashpoint was disciplinary. Joakim Mæhle received a yellow card in the 37th minute. That was Denmark's only caution of the match, and it left the hosts with a full complement heading into the second half.

Wales were booked twice after the restart. Chris Mepham saw yellow in the 49th minute, early in the second period. Brennan Johnson was cautioned in the 65th minute. Those were the visitors' only cards. Red cards finished 0-0, so both teams played out the remainder with 11 players. From there the remaining minutes produced no further confirmed cautions. Denmark saw out a 2-0 win.

Key Moments

The 2-0 result was the decisive fact. Denmark had both goals on the official scoreline and Wales had none, which is why the home side took the match.

Mæhle's yellow in the 37th minute was the only Danish booking. It mattered because it stayed a caution. Denmark were not down a player before half-time, and they did not collect another card after it.

Wales's cautions for Mepham and Johnson arrived in the second half and still left the visitors with 11 on the field. The game was decided on the scoreboard, not by dismissals.

Match Statistics

The useful numbers sat mostly with Denmark, with two exceptions. Shots were 19 for the home side and 10 for Wales. Expected goals were 1.24 to 0.65 in Denmark's favour. Shots on target were level at three apiece, so Wales were as accurate in that narrow sense even while creating less. Corners went to the visitors, four to two. Yellow cards were one for Denmark and two for Wales, matching the cautions for Mæhle, Mepham and Johnson. There were no red cards.
