Denmark vs. England Women's Soccer: Date, Time, Live Stream for 2017 Friendly

Gianni VerschuerenJun 30, 2017

England will face Denmark in their final friendly ahead of the upcoming 2017 Women's European Championship, with the two sides set to go head-to-head on Saturday.

The Lionesses took confidence-boosting wins in their last two friendlies, against Austria and Switzerland, but the Danes will present an entirely different calibre of opponent. It should be an excellent opportunity for England to gauge their form after a difficult start to 2017.

The match will start at 6 p.m. BST (7 p.m. local) and will be played at Gladsaxe Stadium in Copenhagen. England broadcast their friendlies via Periscope.

The Lionesses have been preparing for the upcoming friendly and the European championship at St George's Park, the FA's top centre for the national teams.

Per Siobhan Chamberlain, the time together was a success:

Whether it had the desired effect remains to be seen. While England took some momentum from their wins over Austria and Switzerland, it's hard to ignore the lack of form the team showed against elite competition in the months prior.

The win over the United States in the SheBelieves Cup was the only highlight of a bad start to the year, and the 1-1 draw against Italy after the tournament highlighted some key issues.

The Lionesses needed too many chances to score against the Italians, and while that wasn't the case in their next two friendlies, the Danish defence should provide a much sterner test.

In defence, Line Roddik Hansen is as experienced as they come, with well over 100 caps. She'll be tasked with organising the lines, while further up the pitch, Pernille Harder will be looked at to score the goals.

The 24-year-old is already the team's top scorer and enjoyed a fine 2016-17 campaign, as you can see in the video below:

If England play up to their full potential, they should have the talent to see off Denmark and make a deep run in the European Championship. Laura Bassett and Lucy Bronze rank among the best defenders in the tournament, and Toni Duggan should be flying high after a great season with Manchester City.

Putting the pieces together ahead of the tournament opener against Scotland will be key, and this final friendly provides the team with the perfect opportunity to do just that.ย
