Fresh off reaching the semifinals of Euro 2020, Denmark enters the 2022 World Cup with eyes on another deep run at a major tournament.
The Danes, boosted by the return of Christian Eriksen, take on Tunisia to open their quest in Qatar, and they enter on the heels of mixed results. Denmark beat 2018 World Cup champion France twice in recent UEFA Nations League matches, but lost twice to 2018 World Cup runner-up Croatia in games dating back to June. Its meeting with the Carthage Eagles is a rarity—they’ve only ever played each other once before, in a friendly 20 years ago.
