The former Ajax captain believes his national side can "cause a stir" in Russia as he targets a move back to the big time
Denmark international defender Nicolai Boilesen has revealed that the national team will go to the World Cup inspired by the heroics of Sevilla, who recently knocked Manchester United out of the Champions League.
The Spanish side claimed a 2-1 victory at Old Trafford, with national team captain Simon Kjaer at the heart of a defence which played a large part in helping Sevilla book a quarter-final date with Bayern Munich.
Boilesen says that success, along with the ongoing hot form of Christian Eriksen for Tottenham in the Premier League, is inspirational to the national squad as a whole ahead of a World Cup campaign that will pit them against France, Peru and Australia.
