In the just-concluded World Cup European Qualifier, Denmark drew 2-2 with Belarus at home. Hojlund missed the match and did not even make the substitute list, with Wind starting in his place. Di Marzio stated that Hojlund was absent only due to a mild flu and there is no serious problem.
After this round's draw, Denmark tops Group C with 11 points, leading second-place Scotland by only 1 point. In the final round of the World Cup qualifier, Denmark will face Scotland away, and a draw will be enough to qualify directly for the World Cup.
