Denmark sink Wales as Rasmus Højlund makes Danny Ward pay for blunder

Denmark secured a Nations League victory over Wales at Cardiff City Stadium after Rasmus Højlund scored the decisive second-half penalty. Welsh goalkeeper Danny Ward made several outstanding saves earlier in the match but gifted Denmark the chance after miskicking a pass to Gustav Isaksen and clumsily fouling him in the box, allowing Højlund to convert effortlessly.

Wales struggled to maintain energy during their fourth match in eleven days, though Portugal's comeback win against Norway kept Craig Bellamy's side third in Group A4. Bellamy expressed frustration over player fatigue and minutes, as Wales failed to test Danish goalkeeper Mads Hermansen before the final whistle.
