We can beat Peru. Especially if Rogic is up front playing a false nine and we have an extra mid like Luongo in midfield.
So open and Peru want to attack without their defence holding shape. Really dangerous, France will open them up 2/3 nil if not careful.

Peru are desperate to win, if they lose they are already out when they play us right?
You just know that France and Denmark will play out a campaignery 0-0 draw though don't you.

What happens if Denmark lose 2-1 to France and we beat Peru 1-0? We’d have equal results in all matches. Toss a coin? Fewest yellow cards?
my understanding is if its that equal Denmark go through because they scored their goal against us first....
