According to the British newspaper Daily Mail, England’s soccer players were given the option to ride bicycles as a way to unwind following their first victory in the European Championship.
In their opening Group Stage match, England secured a 1-0 win over Serbia thanks to a goal from Jude Bellingham. They now prepare to face Denmark in their next encounter. Ahead of this game, players were permitted to cycle within their training base for relaxation.
Nine players, including Bellingham, Kane, Walker, Pickford, Rice, Stones, Guehi, Bowen, and Saka, chose cycling as a means to alleviate stress. Despite some criticism of their performance against Serbia, the team was collectively content with their winning start.
Denmark, their upcoming opponents, drew their first match 1-1 with Slovenia, with veteran Christian Eriksen scoring for Denmark. Historically, the two teams have met 22 times, with England holding a favorable record of 13 wins, 5 draws, and 4 losses, giving them a significant psychological edge.
