Here is the final whistle from the referee and with it, the Group D match between Denmark and Tunisia ends in a goalless draw.
Mathias Jensen does a deliberate tackle for the team and the referee will serve him with a yellow card. Ever since Jensen made the tackle a yellow card was only a matter of time.
Mathias Jensen tried to go towards the first post but missed the target. He received the pass well on the edge of the box, but Tunisian players foiled his effort with some good blocking.
Simon Kjaer has been sent off the field and is replaced by Mathias Jensen in Denmark's lineup. Apart from him, Andreas Cornelius has replaced Kasper Dolberg.
Tunisia start the second half with a perfect opportunity created by Mohamed Drager. But, it was successfully averted the Denmark's defender and ball goes above the goal post.

Our group will not be easy, the draw has not been kind. Denmark is among the best squads in Europe. We know they have high quality in every department. But we will give our all. We have our strengths, but we also know our weaknesses. We are aware we will be compared to past Tunisia squads.
FIFA WC LIVE: Here's what Denmark coach Kasper Hjulmand said ahead of the game
After he (Christian Eriksen) came back, it’s been unbelievable. The second he stepped into the pitch for the first time in Amsterdam, playing against Holland, he just took control of the match and scored, and since then, he’s just been better and better. He is the rhythm, he is the heart of our team, the pulse of our play. He’s a tremendous football player.
