Denmark’s younglings secured themselves a place at the European Under-17 Championship in Azerbaijan this coming May with a 2-1 win over Switzerland yesterday, with the goal that clinched it – or should that be ‘clenched’ it – being an absolute joy to behold.
Claus Jakobsen was the man to apply the finishing touch, skilfully using his buttocks to guide a clearance deftly over the Swiss goalkeeper’s head and into the back of the net…
What a beauty. With talent like that on the pitch, we’re backing the Danes for nothing but glory.
