In the early morning of June 4, Beijing time, the Danish Football Association released a list of 23 people who participated in the Russian World Cup. Tottenham midfielder Eriksson led, Chelsea defender Christensen, Leicester goalkeeper Schumacher and other famous players were selected, but the 30-year-old national team's main force for many years Bendtner lost due to injury.
Compared with the previous list of 27 people, manager Harry has made few adjustments. Top star and Tottenham midfield commander Eriksson leads the team. In addition to Eriksson, Premier League players such as Schumacher, zanka, Lester and Christensen have also been selected.
Bendtner's defeat was a surprise. Bendtner, a 30-year-old former Arsenal striker, was injured in the club's Rosenberg game. Although he had been selected into the squad before, he was still regretted that he was not selected for the world cup in Russia due to his injury.

Now Denmark's comprehensive strength is not very strong, but it's a good thing to be in the same group with France, the old rival for many years. Australia and Peru are not as strong as Denmark. It's not a small probability event that the group will qualify. With Eriksson in good condition, Denmark is expected to go further.
