Denmark goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel says he is proud of his team despite their failure to reach the quarter-finals after a disappointing loss to Croatia. After a 120-minute draw, the Danes lost 3-2 to Croatia in a thrilling penalty shootout, in which the Croatian goalkeeper Danijel Subasic saved three penalties and Schmeichel stopped two on Sunday.

Schmeichel was chosen as the man of the match for his superb saves. "Today we had opportunities, and we were better in the second half and in the extra time. But we didn't have the luck. It is difficult to accept that and to put it into words," Schmeichel said.
