Denmark World Cup tickets

The Parken

tylerlong19 — Thu, 13 May 2010 15:25:54 +0000

On September 9, 1992, the rebuilt Idrætsparken, now called Parken, the biggest venue in Denmark with 42,000 seats, was opened with a 1–2 defeat by Germany. Parken has since been the sole stadium of the men’s senior national team matches, with a contract on all men’s senior matches until 2007. Meagre spectator support at some matches, which have attracted from 22,000 down to below 10,000 for the April 17, 2002 friendly 3–1 win over Israel, caused speculation that certain friendly matches might be moved to other stadiums around the country after 2007.

In 2006 Parken’s 13-year monopoly on national team matches was broken, for a May 27, 2006 friendly game at NRGi Park, with World Cup 2006 participants Paraguay the opponent, almost 19,000 of the 22,227 tickets were sold within the first hour of sale.[13] The game was a big success, support-wise, and another game at a new venue followed on September 1 at Brøndby Stadium. However, this match only attracted 13,186 spectators (in a 26,000 capacity stadium) and was deemed a relative failure. The reasons are thought to be a combination of the poor, rainy weather, and the fact that this stadium is located on the outskirts of Copenhagen, and as such does not attract a new demographic, as the travel distances and times to Parken are not much greater, if not lesser, for most of the population.

Underdog Denmark sets sights on another upset at World Cup

tylerlong19 — Fri, 07 May 2010 13:59:04 +0000

Relishing the role of underdog, Denmark has an outstanding record in major championships over the last three decades.

The 1992 European champions have survived the first round in each of its last three World Cup appearances, and this year’s tournament in South Africa could be No. 4. But first, the Danes will have to get through a group containing the Netherlands, Cameroon and Japan.

“The goal in South Africa is to get past the first round,” Denmark coach Morten Olsen said. “The chances are there. But then again, Cameroon and Japan can say the same. We’ll see. Good football always gives the best results.”

Olsen hasn’t yet picked his squad, but the pool of players doesn’t include any of the top names in international soccer.

Feyenoord striker Jon Dahl Tomasson and Ajax winger Dennis Rommedahl are nearing the twilight of their careers. Still, they form the backbone of the team with Liverpool defender Daniel Agger, Juventus midfielder Christian Poulsen and Arsenal striker Niclas Bendtner.

Many experts didn’t give the fairly low-profile squad much chance of making it to South Africa, but the Danes stunned both Portugal and Sweden to win their qualifying group. The team set the tone early with a 3-2 win in Portugal, and then beat Sweden twice to command the group all the way to the finish.

“The World Cup is very different from the qualification round, which stretches over a year and a half,” Olsen said. “In South Africa, it only spans over four weeks and all players that I will pick must not have any injuries and be in their best shape. It is much more intense.”

Denmark enters the tournament after having missed both the 2006 World Cup and the 2008 European Championship.

Denmark’s golden moment in soccer history is the win over Germany in the 1992 European Championship final – a tournament it joined as a late replacement for war-torn Yugoslavia. It also upset Germany in the group stage of the 1986 World Cup.

In its last World Cup appearance in 2002, Denmark sent advanced ahead of defending champion France before losing to England in the second round.

Simon Kjær

Kjær started playing football professionally with Danish side FC Midtjylland. In October 2007, Kjær attracted the likes of English Premier League sides Middlesbrough and Chelsea, being then named 2007 Danish under-19 talent of the year later in November. Real Madrid tried to sign Simon Kjær in August 2007, but their offer was refused by FC Midtjylland.
Palermo

In February 2008, he signed a five-year contract with Serie A team Palermo, which took effect in July 2008, after they paid a €4 million transfer fee.

Kjær got his Palermo debut on 26 October 2008 as a half-time substitute against Fiorentina in Serie A. His performance won praise despite Palermo’s 3-1 home defeat. He scored his first goal for Palermo in his third appearance on 2 November in a 3–0 win over Chievo. His excellent performances ensured him more first team football and a new contract with the Sicilian club.

He confirmed his reputation as first team regular also in the following 2009–10 season, where he formed a strong defensive partnership with fellow centre-back Cesare Bovo, also scoring twice in the first half of the season.

Daniel Agger: Key player at World Cup 2010

tylerlong19 — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 13:59:06 +0000

Despite his relative youth, Agger acquired a reputation for playing with great authority and class under Brondby captain Per Nielsen.

The Liverpool man is well-known to English forwards on his national duty; he terrorised them during a 4-1 friendly win for Denmark in 2005.

While at Brondy Agger was long linked to a transfer to a bigger club, and in the January 2006 transfer window, his £5.8 million transfer deal to Anfield made him the most expensive footballer sold abroad by a Danish club.

While Agger is in-and-out of the Liverpool team under Rafael Benítez he cuts an intimidating figure, exemplified by his “memento mori” tattoo.

Per Kroldrup

tylerlong19 — Tue, 13 Apr 2010 13:43:20 +0000

Born in Farsø, Krøldrup started his footballing career at Danish lower league club Aalborg Chang. He went on to play for B 93 Copenhagen in the secondary Danish 1st Division before transferring to Udinese in the Italian top-flight Serie A championship in 2001. At Udinese, he played alongside Danish national team player Martin Jørgensen, who claimed that Krøldrup was ready for the Danish national team in March 19. Krøldrup was not called up for the national team until February 2004, making his debut against Turkey. He was a part of the Danish squad for the 2004 European Championship, though he did not play any games at the tournament.

In June 2005, Krøldrup moved from Udinese to English club Everton FC for a transfer fee of £5million. Before having played a single game for the club, he suffered a groin injury and had to undergo surgery. He made his debut for Everton in a 0-4 defeat to Aston Villa, which was to be his only league game for the club. His Everton career was later described as one of the worst transfers in both English and Liverpudlian football, and Krøldrup has stated his difficulties of adapting to the physical aspects of the English game.

Michael Lumb

tylerlong19 — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 13:51:53 +0000

Lumb was born in Aarhus, Denmark. He has shown to be a very reliable and promising young left back. Lumb was named the young gun “Shooting Star” of the autumn season 2007/08 by the Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet and according to the AGF Sporting director, he has so far attracted offers from English and German clubs (Said to be Blackburn Rovers, Aston Villa and Hamburger SV), while also Ajax Amsterdam have been linked to the talented Danish U-21 International. On 11 January 2010 it was reported on AGF’s website that he was moving to Zenit Saint Petersburg in the Russian Premier League. He came from AGFs very talented ’88-volume who won the Danish Youth Championships like Morten Beck Andersen, Frederik Krabbe, Michael Vester, Niels Kristensen, Jesper Blicher and Anders Syberg who all have had their debute on the AGF A-team. Lumb has always been an important player, both on AGFs youth teams and on the national teams.

Lumb’s forces are his mature skills with the ball, understanding of the game and, though his young age, routine after he’s played over a hundred SAS Superliga matches for AGF.

1986 FIFA World Cup

tylerlong19 — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 15:27:32 +0000

Denmark made their first World Cup appearance in the 1986 FIFA World Cup, and with the attacking duo of Michael Laudrup and Preben Elkjær the team surprised the world, sweeping the group, including a 6–1 thrashing of Uruguay. In the second round Denmark once again faced Spain, and once more Denmark lost out.

The team received a trashing of their own, losing 5–1, including four goals by Emilio Butragueño. The first Spanish goal was caused by a miss-timed backpass by Jesper Olsen to Butragueño, an unfortunate action subsequently coined as “a real Jesper Olsen” (en rigtig Jesper Olsen). The phrase would live on for 13 years when an identical backpass was carried out by Jesper Grønkjær to Filippo Inzaghi in Grønkjær’s 1999 debut game.

Union is a success

tylerlong19 — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 14:06:24 +0000

Around 95% of Danish professional football players are members of the Football Players’ Union. Despite the strong element of competition and obvious individual interests connected to this profession, the union is a success. This is the conclusion of a study, published in June 2001, of industrial relations in professional football. According to this analysis, the success of the union is due to its support for both the individual and collective needs of the players. Women professional players have recently been admitted to the union.

According to a new study of industrial relations in Danish professional football, the Danish Football Players’ Union (Spillerforeningen) is a successful trade union with a very high membership rate, good contacts with private sponsors and considerable skill in navigating between the individual and collective needs of the players. The study, which is the first of its kind in a sector not often examined in an industrial relations context, was published in June 2001 by Kristian Nielsen of the Department of Sociology at the University of Copenhagen.

English trio guard slender Europa leads

tylerlong19 — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 15:39:38 +0000

Three English Premier League sides face tough away tests in the second leg of their UEFA Europa League round-of-32 matches this week as they look to protect precarious single-goal leads.

Liverpool, Everton and Fulham are all one goal up following the first matches of the competition’s knockout phase and for the two Merseyside clubs this remains the last chance of winning silverware this season. Rafael Benitez’s side take a 1-0 lead to Romanian champions Unirea Urziceni, David Moyes’s men are 2-1 up as they play away at Sporting Lisbon and Roy Hodgson’s Fulham meet the winners of the last ever UEFA Cup, Shakhtar Donetsk, with the London side also taking a 2-1 lead to Ukraine.

The Europa League is the rebranded successor to the trophy won by the Ukrainian side last year. It would be something of a consolation prize for Liverpool after their group-stage elimination from the UEFA Champions League, but Reds manager Benitez knows he needs to win a trophy to quell growing supporter unrest as his side trail 16 points behind Chelsea in the Premier League.

“When you win a European competition it is always very important,” the Spaniard said. “If you cannot be in the Champions League, you have to do your best in this tournament and we would love to give a trophy to our fans. We want to do something important.”
