Denmark: Danish Dynamite
The Danish football team enters the European Championship 2024 in Germany with strong ambitions. Coach Kasper Hjulmand, who has been at the helm since 2020, has led the team through three international tournaments, achieving a semi-final finish at the European Championship 2020, their best performance since winning the tournament in 1992. Key players include goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel, defender Simon Kjaer, and midfielder Christian Eriksen, who is considered the central playmaker. Eriksen, known for his precise passes and leadership on the field, plays a crucial role in orchestrating Denmark's game. In attack, young Manchester United striker Rasmus Højlund stands out, having scored seven goals in his first 12 international matches, marking him as one of the brightest attacking talents. With this mix of experienced players and emerging talents, Denmark is well-positioned to make a significant impact in Germany.
Kasper Schmeichel
Kasper Schmeichel, the undisputed number one for the Danish national team, will once again be in goal at the European Championship 2024. Currently playing for RSC Anderlecht in the Belgian Pro League, Schmeichel has quickly settled in following his move in September 2023. With his extensive experience and impressive talent, showcased in previous international tournaments, he will play a key role in the Danish team's high expectations for the tournament. His leadership and goalkeeping skills make him an indispensable part of the team. For the 37-year-old veteran goalkeeper, this is likely to be his last European Championship.
