Danish national team shaken by COVID-19 as key places approach

Big final vs Belgium?

The Danish side is already heavily undermined due to the United Kingdom banning incoming flights from Denmark due to the COVID-19 mink mutation situation.

Because of these measures in the United Kingdom, players play their trade in England – inclusive Kasper Schmeichel, Jannik Vestergaard, Andreas Christensen and Pierre-Emile Højbjerg – can not participate in the friendly match with Sweden in Copenhagen tomorrow.

Against Sweden, Ebbe Sand, Lars Høgh and Mounir Akhiat take over as coaching team with Hjulmand and his assistant Morten Wieghorst in quarantine.

Denmark is currently number two behind Belgium in the Nations League Group 2, and a victory against Iceland would give them a chance to win the league against the Belgians next week.

Most recently, the Danes managed impressive victories away from home in Reykjavik and their first at Wembley Stadium in 35 years.
