DENMARK

Ranking Joint 12. Last time DNQ. Manager Age Hareide — Norwegian endured a rocky start to his reign, not helped by the fact he succeeded a national legend in Morten Olsen, but restored faith by guiding the team to a first World Cup since 2010.

They’re a bit like Brighton — inoffensive, unfussy, likeable.

Key man Christian Eriksen (right) — Hareide can be credited with getting the best out of Eriksen, whose 11 goals in qualifying included a hattrick

in the play-offs against the Republic of Ireland. Has enjoyed a fine season with Tottenham and comes into the tournament in tip-top shape.

Rising star Kasper Dolberg — plenty of hype around the 20-year-old Ajax forward. Scored seven goals in the Dutch side’s run to the 2017 Europa League final, which they lost to Manchester United.

Prospects Should get out of the group behind France, but on a collision course with Argentina in the last 16.
