Farmers must occasionally enter the bins to break up clumps or blockages in order for the grain to flow freely—a risky activity due to the possibility of entrapment or suffocation within the grain, which can move or settle almost like quicksand. Farmers use shovels to dig out trapped persons.
Russia was eliminated after its loss while Denmark will play against Germany on July 6th for a spot in the quarterfinals.
Germany and Denmark have been rivals since both countries became nations in 1864. The two countries have gone to war twice, with Denmark losing both matches 1-0. Germany won its first match by a score of 2-1 but lost the next year 1-0 at home to allow Denmark to advance to the final round of the tournament.
The Russians were defeated by Denmark last year when they played for third place. It's worth mentioning that Sweden also lost to Denmark but it was already guaranteed to qualify for the quarterfinals as it was placed fourth in the group. Russia had a chance to beat Sweden but lost 0-1; however, it still managed to secure its place in the next stage by virtue of its win over Denmark.
Belgium has been one of the most successful teams in international soccer history, having never been defeated when playing at home. Its record reads 9W-0D-4L.
Denmark won its first European championship in 1992, defeating Germany 2-0 in the final. The Germans had already won the event twice and were considered big favourites with players like as Jurgen Klinsmann, Stefan Effenberg, and Matthias Sammer among their ranks. Denmark's only victory came from the penalty spot where Jan Eriksen scored the only goal of the game.
This was also Denmark's first appearance at a European Championship finals after not having qualified for the tournament. They had been banned by UEFA because of disputes with Norway over ticket prices for 1986 and 1990 tournaments but had been allowed to reapply.
Denmark played in the qualifying rounds held in Sweden and Switzerland in 1991 and finished second behind Norway who qualified directly for the final tournament. The Danes had also reached the quarter-finals of the world cup that year so they were well prepared when they entered the competition. However, they were drawn against Germany who were expected to win the event easily. This match turned out to be one of the most exciting games during the tournament with both teams producing some great football. It was eventually decided by a penalty shoot-out after Germany had missed several chances to score and Denmark had saved two penalties.
Germany's Oliver Kahn was given the responsibility of taking the first penalty but he missed high to his left. Then Danish goalkeeper Thomas Helveg took the kick and sent the German team out of the tournament.
Trezeguet, David France won the tournament, defeating Italy 2-1 in the final on a golden goal by David Trezeguet after Italy had equalized with a last-minute goal, and became the first team to win both the European and global championships.
He has since been voted French player of the year three times - in 2001, 2002, and 2003 - and has also won the UEFA Champions League twice with Paris Saint-Germain.
As for Italy, they have never finished higher than third place at a European Championship, and their only gold medal came in 1960 when they also took home the World Cup. Since then they have only managed to finish second once more - in 1984 by way of penalty kicks after a 1-1 draw with France - but that was not enough to retain their title as Spain claimed their second consecutive championship.
The most successful country in terms of medals at Euro 2000 is Germany who took home the bronze medal. They have also won the World Cup twice (1990 and 1994) and the Olympic tournament once (2004). France, England, and Italy were all in the top eight teams at the World Cup back in 2006. Germany's dominance can be seen from the fact that they have won every single match they have played at this summer's European Championship including two victories over France.
