On for Christensen after 80 as Denmark wisely used five subs. The only surprise was that it wasn’t the injured Kjaer. Getty Images
CZECH REPUBLIC RATINGS: Tomáš Vaclik 6 – The goalkeeper had a mixed performance. He made a number of vital saves for his side, but there is no looking past the fact he conceded two, the second of which he could have done better. Despite this, he was always sharp off his line. AFP
Vladimir Coufal 7 – The right-back was one of his side’s best performers as he made several tackles that disrupted the Danish attack. He marked tightly throughout the game and even had a chance fall his way, but it was on his weaker foot. AP
Ondrej Celustka 5 – The Sparta Prague defender had a good chance from a free-kick, but he just missed the ball. He later came off due to an injury received whilst defending against a Danish attack. AP
Tomas Kalas 5 –Bristol City’s centre-back was responsible for losing Delaney in the box as he headed in the opening goal. Kalas didn’t make many tackles, but the few he did were needed to stop Denmark from extending their lead. AP
Jan Boril 5 –The left-back was partly at fault for the second goal as he wasn’t goal side of Dolberg who managed to tap the ball in at the back post. He found himself chasing the ball on occasion and didn’t win many challenges. EPA
Tomáš Holes 6 –The midfielder made his fifth European Championship appearance and nearly scored with a volley at the edge of the box, but it was saved by Schmeichel. EPA
Tomas Soucek 5 -The Czech captain wasn’t at his usual standard and his side paid the price. He had a headed chance which went wide. He needed to step up and perform, but he didn’t meet his own high expectations.
Lukàš Masopust 6 – The 28-year-old did some good pressing early on and he made several good runs forward down the wing. He also displayed some clever footwork, which mostly worked though there was no-one to meet his deliveries. AFP
Antonín Barak 6 – The Udinese midfielder made some decent deliveries from free-kicks but none of his teammates could capitalise. He also put a great through ball to Schick, which came to nothing. He had a shot on the edge of the box but it didn’t test Schmeichel. EPA
Petr Ševčik 5 – The Slavia Prague man had a poor game. He wasted several chances, including a volley which finished well over. He was subsequently replaced late on. Getty Images
Patrick Schick 7 – One of the breakout stars of the tournament got his fifth goal, this time on on the volley, to claw one back for his side. He was very creative and made a number of good forward runs, but the Danish defence kept him at bay. The striker was taken off late on as his manager looked for an equaliser. EPA
SUB: Jakob Jankto (Holes, 46) 7 – Jankto came on at half-time and made a number of good runs along the left wing, and his energy definitely helped his side fight back in the second half. He provided several crosses into the box but there was no-one on the end to finish them off. EPA
SUB: Michael Krmencik (Masopust, 46) 7 – Arguably the best substitution, as he changed his side’s fortune. He had a large number of chances, and he held up the ball to bring others into play. EPA
SUB: Jakub Brabec (Celustka, 65) – 5 The centre-back replaced an injured Celustka late on and he was tasked with marking Poulsen. He lost him a few times but he also put in several interceptions to deny the Leipzig man. He had a shot from range but it was off target. AFP
SUB: Matej Vydra (Schick, 79) N/A – The Burnley striker came on as his side searched for an equaliser but he was reduced to one effort, which he failed to capitalise on. AFP
SUB: Vladimir Darida (Sevcik, 80) N/A– The 30 year was introduced at the same time as Vydra and he failed to make a real impact for his side.
Smart save from Holes after 20 – a minute after the Dane had chipped the ball into the Czech midfielder. Hard to save Schick’s fifth goal of tournament – level with Ronaldo as top scorer. Had to be on top of his game as Czech Republic gave everything to get a late equaliser. Getty Images
The Southampton defender has been excellent for his country. Comfortable as they blew Czech Republic away in the first half. Under significant pressure in the second half but maximum effort means he’s now a semi-finalist. Getty Images
Captain Fantastic came back from injury. Confidently blocked a 71st minute shot from Jankto and winced in pain as he did. Screamed at his players while in agony. Should he have come off? No. Getty Images
Fifth successive start for the Chelsea defender. Superb in 2021. Very hard for the Czechs to get past. Getty Images
Beautifully weighted ball – and very difficult to execute – for Dolberg to volley in the second. Should have made it 3-1 after 80 when he could have shot or passed to Braithwaite. Getty Images
Headed outswinging corner down into the corner from ten yards after five minutes for dream Danish start. Why wasn’t he marked? Devastating combinations with Larsen and should have scored a second. Tactically smart. Left field exhausted. Excellent. Getty Images
Key player as Denmark dominated in the middle and reached the semi-final of a major tournament for the first time since Euro ’92 – which they won. Struggled in the last ten minutes and looked exhausted but ran himself into the ground and still created chances. EPA
Perfect corner straight off the training ground to assist first goal. Let the Czech full-backs push up as Denmark comfortable in their 3-4-3 shape. AFP
Played on the left, right and in the centre. Created clear chances but shot well wide after 27. You can doubt that he has the technical level to play for Barça, but not his quality and effort. Held ball up when needed. Team player. AFP
Shared the chances among the forwards, made forward runs. Got the second goal after another lightning counter attack, volleying in his third in three matches to delight the 2,000 noisy travelling Danes. Getty Images
Birthday and his best first half chance saw him with only goalkeeper to beat after 37. He shot straight at him. Worked hard in difficult conditions and deserved his rest after an hour. AFP
On for Damsgaard after 59, the Brentford player went left and played some quality balls. Reuters
On for Dolberg after 60 after overcoming a thigh injury and shot within a minute of entering the field after a fast run beat the defender. Should’ve scored. Ran forward after 69 in another counter but ran out of energy and shot straight at the goalkeeper. Took a top shot after 78. Fine movement off ball. More shots than any player on pitch – despite only playing 30 mins. AFP
On for Larsen after 70 and gave ball away within a minute as Czech Republic pushed for an equaliser as both teams tired. AFP
On for Delaney 80. AFP
