We're all just as competitive but as you see I haven't made any tackles like that here. You always try to avoid that kind of situation. It's something that happened but it wasn't good for anyone. It won't happen again.
Denmark needs goals so it will probably attack a lot and make things dangerous for us.
He's a very important player especially with the experience he's got from a lot of past championships. He was supposed to quit after the World Cup but it's great to have him as part of the group.
