Danish National Team |
Professional football was not introduced in Denmark until 1978, where most leading clubs turned
semi-pro. Brøndby IF were the first Danish club to turn fully professional
in 1986.
Denmark's new generation rising
Of all the Scandinavian
nations, Denmark's football traditions stretch back the furthest. The
Danish Football Association, founded in 1889, is one of the world's oldest.

Best remembered for their dream team of the 1980s and the side which earned a shock victory at the 1992 UEFA European Championship in Sweden, the Danes pride themselves on being a well-organised outfit who rise to the big occasion. |

Rio de Janeiro’s beauties are famous all over the world: beaches, Carnival, the planet’s largest urban forest. These are privileges enjoyed only by this city that is the second largest Brazilian metropolis, with more than five million inhabitants.
There’s more to Rio, though. On each curve between the ocean and the mountains a new corner can be found, explaining the reasons for this city being unforgettable. And such reasons also fascinate every year two million foreign tourists including myself and more than five million Brazilian tourists.

Since long ago Rio de Janeiro proudly holds the title of a city that receives its visitors with open arms. Its talent for tourism is unquestionable, for this naturally beautiful city has infrastructure for hosting all kinds of events and a hotel network capable of pleasing the most demanding guests.
For all these reasons, Rio was considered the “World Capital of Courtesy” after surveys carried out made by the Universities of Michigan and California.
