Angry Martin Braithwaite BLASTS decision for England's vital penalty as Barcelona star says 'I have to be careful what I say' and claims playing at Wembley 'could have had an influence' on the referee following Denmark's Euro 2020 heartbreak

Martin Braithwaite has hit out at the decision to award England a late penalty against Denmark as the Barcelona forward bemoaned his side's heartbreaking exit from Euro 2020.

Harry Kane tapped away the rebound from a missed penalty in extra time booked England's place in Sunday's final - the first time the Three Lions have reached a showpiece event in 55 years - after Joakim Maehle appeared to haul down Raheem Sterling in the box.

However, upon closer inspection, the full back made very minimal contact with the Manchester City star, leading to accusations of diving from fans across Europe.
