A sickness bug has affected Denmark ahead of their decisive World Cup qualifier against Scotland. Joachim Andersen, Rasmus Højlund and a staff member were all forced to miss the draw with Belarus due to illness, leaving head coach Brian Riemer concerned about further spread before Tuesday’s match at Hampden Park. Denmark, one point ahead in Group C, need only a draw to qualify.
Scotland, aiming for their first World Cup finals since 1998, must win to advance. Manager Steve Clarke has called on supporters to remain patient and provide strong backing throughout the game.
