From time to time football teams spring up that give true meaning to the term, ‘the beautiful game’. The Denmark side of the mid 80s to early 90s was one such outfit. Flowing football with so much fluidity between defensive and attacking players that captain and libero Morten Olsen often popped up in the attacking third of the pitch to great effect. The predatory and prolific striker Preben Elkjaer was ably supported up front by the skilful Michael Laudrup.They were ably backed by an outstanding midfield consisting of the very talented Soren Lerby and Frank Arnesen. They became known as ‘The Danish Dynamite’ and will live on in my memory as one of the most exciting football sides I have ever laid eyes on.
Do enjoy these moments from the Danish dynamite.
