Logs two dribbles versus Russia Braithwaite had one shot (on target), two crosses (none accurate), two dribbles and two fouls drawn in Monday's 4-1 win over Russia.

Impact Braithwaite had a decent display here though given the scoring show he'll likely look poor statistically in comparison to many other guys and he remains scoreless this campaign just yet. The forward however has been lively thus far mounting a total of 10 shots (two on target), five chances created, eight crosses and eight fouls drawn over his three group stage matches. Denmark will face Wales in the Round of 16 with the Brits only allowing two goals in three outings.
