Three Further Caps For Foxes Stars
- Kasper Schmeichel played 90 minutes in Denmark’s 2-0 friendly win versus Bosnia & Herzegovina
- Schmeichel kept a clean sheet on his 65th international appearance
- Youri Tielemans and Timothy Castagne started for Belgium in their 1-0 success against Croatia
The Leicester City goalkeeper played from start to finish as Kasper Hjulmand’s men claimed a victory thanks to Barcelona midfielder Martin Braithwaite’s 18th-minute effort and a second-half strike from Parma forward Andreas Cornelius.
Schmeichel and his nation will get their European Championships campaign underway in six days’ time, when they host Finland in Group B in the ‘keeper’s hometown of Copenhagen.
Meanwhile, Youri Tielemans and Timothy Castagne both started and Dennis Praet was not involved as Belgium beat Croatia at the King Baudouin Stadium later in the evening.
A solitary strike from Inter Milan frontman Romelu Lukaku on 38 minutes proved to be enough for the Red Devils to secure a 1-0 triumph in Brussels, with Tielemans and Castagne each completing 90 minutes.
Roberto Martínez’s side – the no.1 ranked team in the world – also get their Group B campaign underway on Saturday, when they take on Russia in St. Petersburg.
In the early hours of Monday morning, young goalkeeper Chituru Odunze’s USA side face Mexico in the CONCACAF Nations League Final following their semi-final success over Honduras on Friday, while Thanawat Suengchitthawon could make his third appearance for Thailand against the United Arab Emirates at night.
