That is all we have time for on Tribe as Denmark and Slovenia share the points in the first game of Group C at the Euros. I have been Elliot Thompson and thank you for joining me. Make sure you stay with us on Tribe as England start their Euros campaign against Serbia in just under a hours time.
Slovenia have Serbia next up in Group C as they will have serious belief now that they can get through to the knockout stages. Denmark will face one of the favourites to win the competition in England. So they will be watching carefully to see how well they play against Serbia later on today.
Slovenia will be more than pleased with the fact they managed to show some elite mentality to get back into the game. In the first half they battled well but allowed Denmark to have all of the ball and control the game at their pace. In the second period of the game that didn't happen as they were much more aggressive. Sesko game was so close in the first half with a venomous shot on the edge of the box. Then he whacked the post with a similar strike which forced Denmark to put the rebound behind for a corner. That corner provided the goal as it was cleared out to Janka. He hit it first-time and after a slight deflection, the ball flew into the back of the net. It was exactly what Slovenia deserved.
THE FIRST DRAW OF THE EUROS IS BETWEEN SLOVENIA AND DENMARK! The first-half was purely dominated by Denmark as they took an early lead. Eriksen completed his fairytale comeback to the European Championships as he slotted the ball home into the bottom left corner after a flick-on by Wind. Eriksen did have another big chance in that half but he fired over. Nevertheless, Denmark were in control but they seemed to lose all their momentum in the second half. They lost all their pace and allowed Slovenia to get back into it and rescue a point. Manager Kasper Hjulmand will certainly be disappointed.

CHANCE! On the left side Norgaard gets the ball out of his feet. He whips in a cross looking for Dolberg. It goes over him but Poulsen is charging in. Janza blocks him off well but the cross nearly finds the back of the net. Oblak rushes across it is just off target.
90+1'
SHOT! Sesko tries to find some space on the edge of the area to shot. He can't so he passes the ball onto Karnicnik. The veteran full-back lets fly on his right foot from distance. His effort flies over the bar not worrying Schmeichel.
