STUTTGART, Germany : Denmark will look to invoke the memory of their famous victory over Germany in the Euro 92 final when they take on the same opponents in the last 16 of this year's tournament, assistant coach Christian Poulsen said on Thursday.

Soccer Football - Euro 2024 - Group D - Denmark v Serbia - Munich Football Arena, Munich, Germany - June 25, 2024 Denmark players on a huddle after the match REUTERS/Fiona NoeverSTUTTGART, Germany : Denmark will look to invoke the memory of their famous victory over Germany in the Euro 92 final when they take on the same opponents in the last 16 of this year's tournament, assistant coach Christian Poulsen said on Thursday.

However, the odds were similarly stacked against Denmark in Gothenburg in 1992 when they shocked then-world champions Germany with a 2-0 win for their first major title and Kasper Hjulmand's side are eyeing another upset on Saturday. "I remember 92. I was a child, 12-years-old, but that's one of the biggest moments in Danish football. And, I think, that was a nice memory. So if we could do that again, that would be amazing," he added.

However, they have been encouraged by Switzerland taking the game to the Germans in their final group match which ended 1-1 after Julian Nagelsmann's side scored a stoppage time equaliser to rescue a draw.
