Denmark 2-0 Wales: Craig Bellamy's side bottom of Nations League group after second defeat in a row

Wales wilted in Copenhagen as a 2-0 defeat to Denmark left them bottom of their Nations League group.
After a first half in which Wales were very much second best and fortunate to reach the break level, Denmark's domination was rewarded by a Ben Davies own goal and a deflected Gustav Isaksen strike from two Mikkel Damsgaard set-piece deliveries.
Wales lost Thursday's opener to Portugal 1-0 and it leaves them without a point - and a goal - in Group A4, and already facing an uphill battle to avoid relegation.
Denmark were under similar pressure after being beaten by Norway on Thursday, but rose to the occasion and could easily have won more comfortably.
Wales have no let up as they face Norway and Erling Haaland on Thursday in their third Nations League match. Norway play Portugal later on Sunday before that match.
