Description

Nordic Kings Denmark beat Finland 2-1 in an international friendly Sept 15. to complete an unofficial 2011 Nordic grand slam, following a 2-0 victory over fierce rivals Sweden last Friday and a crucial 2-0 defeat of Norway in Euro 2012 qualifying in September. Ahead of the game in Esbjerg, national coach Morten Olsen had said the Finns were better than Sweden, and they started the brighter, taking a 1-0 lead into half-time. But two goals in two minutes from Daniel Agger and an in-form Nicklas Bendtner, to add to his brace against Sweden, sealed the win.
