The Denmark national team was officially created in 1908, however, the first appearance of a Danish national team was at the 1896 Summer Olympics in Athens, where a Denmark XI beat a Greece XI, either 9–0 or 15–0, at the Neo Phaliron Velodrome in a demonstration game. [3] Denmark also participated in the 1906 Intercalated Games also in Athens, with a team compiled of players from the Copenhagen Football Association (KBU), and they won the event after again beating Greece with a heavy score (9–0), and thereby winning an unofficial gold medal. [4]
Between their first official match in 1908 and 1929, Denmark played 73 games. Throughout this period they played in three Olympic football tournaments in 1908, 1912 and 1920, reaching the final on the former two, which they lost to Great Britain on both occasions. In the 1908 semi-finals they beat France 17-1 with 10 goals from Sophus Nielsen. [5]
They also played the inaugural edition of the Nordic Football Championship in 1924-28, winning the tournament. [6]
