The World Cup comes and World Cup goes, but very few speak about the spirited Denmark side of Mexico 1986. Brazil, France and USSR were the pre-tournament favourites, but that Denmark side became one of the serious contenders for the World Cup as soon as the tournament kicked off. They thrashed Uruguay 6-1 and then shocked Germany with a 2-0 win and advanced into the second round as the unbeaten group champions. World-class players such as Preben Elkjær, Michael Laudrup, Søren Lerby, Frank Arnesen and Morten Olsen, as well as a visionary German coach Sepp Piontek transformed Denmark into an invincible side. Here in this match, Denmark outclassed the West Germans in style.
