Even though they narrowly missed out on qualification for EURO 2016 in France, they play a modern, creative and exciting brand of football,” said Germany head coach Joachim Löw. Team manager Oliver Bierhoff added: “It will be a fantastic occasion to play against Denmark, 25 years after we lost the European Championship final in 1992. We are really looking forward to the game and are sure that both sets of fans are too.

Åge Hareide, head coach of the Denmark side, had this to say: “Germany are currently the best team in the world. To be able to play against the World Champions is not only an outstanding opportunity for our players to continue their development, but it will also be a great spectacle for the fans.”
