Perfect start with temporary coach
A long search for a replacement for Yulmand. The departure of the former Danish coach between August 2020 and July 2024 caused a temporary situation in the Scandinavian team, whose federation did not want to rush into a decision regarding the identity of his replacement and gave in before the start of the national team’s qualifying stage. That World Cup 2026. Kasper Hjulmand left its mark, especially after this European Cup 2021, in which only a controversial fine against England V Wembley He did not allow his team to reach the final. This great event also assessed his ability to cope with the dramatic situation he faced. Christian Eriksen. But Denmark did not reach the same level in the next two championships, being eliminated in the group stage in Qatar – he didn’t even hit Tunisia neither for Australia– and in the 1/8 finals of the European Championship Germany against the hosts, having failed to win a single match in the group stage, they added three draws. Yulmand resigned after the tournament and Lars Knudsen, who spent his entire career as a coach in the lower categories of the federation or as an assistant in clubs such as Leicester or Augsburg– the one who currently holds the position until a final decision is made. Morten Weghorst, the second national team coach in Julman’s four years, will accompany him on the bench after a leave of absence due to stress, a circumstance that prevented him from taking up the position of interim coach during this period. League of Nations as originally planned.
A fabulous start. Despite this anomalous situation, the team started the Nations League strongly, winning two games 2-0, both at home. And on both occasions he scored against the player who made his debut on that occasion, thereby confirming the innovations introduced by Knudsen.

Return of Hoylund. The Danish bloc is still led by experienced veterans: Kasper Schmeichel on target, Yannick Vestergaard on the back axis, Erikssen in the center of the field and Yussuf Poulsen who scored a great goal with a bicycle kick in the last game. But the new guard is settling in. Alexander Bakh, right side Benficahas already reached fantastic maturity. The country’s great hope is the United striker Rasmus Hoylund, that he missed two September games through injury and that he could make his debut for this nation against Spain. He is powerful, has a very good technical level and finishes the fight powerfully.
Absence in the middle. The most significant loss due to injury in this match was the loss of the pivot. Christian Norgaard, who plays Brentford English. This virtually guarantees that a double midfield formation will be formed in Knudsen’s 3-4-2-1 formation. Hojbjerg and Julmand, a key player in that brilliant moment when Sporting Portugal. It will also be out of stock Damsgaardthe big opening of the 2021 Eurocup, but the progress was not as great as expected at the time.
