As of May 17, 2010, Denmark is currently ranked 26th. Denmark is located just north of the border of Germany. They are looking good coming down the home stretch. Soren Larse is the goal leader with 5 goals so far. Jon Dahl Tomasson has the experience, because he is now 33 years old. On the other hand, the young 22 year old stud Nicklas Bendtner has the fire to bring this team to victory. Both will need to contribute their all to help their team fight to advance to round two.
For the first match of the 2010 World Cup is against the Netherlands, who are currently ranked 3rd. This is going to be a tough match first match for Denmark. I do not think that Denmark can pull off this major upset. But, if Denmark wins or loses the first game they will have to go up against Cameroon, which is ranked 11th. Online, it says that Cameroon has a 52 % chance to advance, while Denmark has a 46% chance to advance.
The last match for Group E would be June 24th, where Denmark will defeat Japan, which is ranked 43rd. Denmark’s franchise has advance to the second round two times; in 1986 and 2002, and the quarter finals once; in 1998. Their record in the World Cup in previous years is playing 13 games, having 7 wins, 4 losses, and 2 draws. Denmark’s players need to stay hot and win the luck of the draw to advance.

You did a great job on the research for Denmark David. I think we have a great chance on getting this project done. Denmark will win against Cameroon mostly because of the experience of the players, and if they contribute to the team. This will get them to the second round.
ReplyDeleteGood job David! I like that you used the info that we got. We should use this as an example of what to do guys. I think they might lose to the Netherlands though.
ReplyDeleteThat was very informational. It gives a great outline of Denmark's team and all the potential they have. There were lots of interesting facts. I think Denmark will beat Japan to advance.
