Denmark has advanced to the elimination round in all of their Cup appearances and will be comfortable with the pressure. They must win - a tie won't do. The Danes looked good against a desperate Cameroon and should be prepared for a very tough Japanese squad. The odds-makers have the Danes favoured but not by much. It's going to be a fantastic game to watch.

I missed the entire game because I was at a wedding but followed on my Blackberry. I was a bit worried that | had jinxed the team when my Danneborg fell off my truck on the 401. Fantastic comes from behind win for the Danes. Now we face a very confident and capable Japan.
The Danes may not have won their first game but they can take pride in knowing one of their own was instrumental in this World Cup and not for scoring an own goal.
Danish citizen Winston Reid scored for the Kiwis in extra time to level with Slovakia. (http://www.cphpost.dk/sport/sport/49245-dane-makes-history-for-kiwis.html) Maybe he can give a pep talk to the Danes before Saturday's game against Cameroon.
In return, I promise to cheer for the Kiwis. Go Kiwis!!!!!!!
I've had to post late due to what I'll call technical difficulties. Sorry Danish fans. Just like me, Denmark had a less-than-perfect start to this World Cup. But I am confident they will bounce back.
The wily Danes will beat both a desperate Cameroon team and the now over-confident Japan to take second in the group. News today is the Danes remain upbeat and confident despite a few injuries to key players Tomasson (knee) and Beckmann (toe - yep a toe injury?)

Anyway, because I am so busy, I am not getting out much with other Danish fans. My Danish wife and I are forced to watch at home. One advantage of that is I get to eat Danish sandwiches and pastry!!! Hahaha
