(Reuters) - Yussuf Poulsen's early goal for Denmark in their Euro 2020 match against Belgium on Thursday lifted the spirits of a team still traumatised by Christian Eriksen's cardiac arrest and they are now determined to beat Russia for him, coach Kasper Hjulmand said.

Although the Danes were beaten 2-1 by Belgium, they can still make the knockout round from Group B with a 2-0 win over Russia provided Finland do not get a result against Belgium.

"We're going to stick together and we're gonna beat the Russians, we're not done in this competition." After an emotionally-charged build-up, Poulsen scored in the second minute to put the smiles back on the faces of Danish fans, and though Hjulmand's side showed great character, they conceded twice in the second half to fall to their second consecutive defeat in Group B.
