Denmark coach Kasper Hjulmand is confident his side can continue to play without fear as they try to edge close to repeating the feat of their 1992 predecessors. “I can’t say compared to other teams if we play with more freedom but I can say an important thing in our game is to play without fear,” the Denmark coach told his pre-match press conference. “One of my biggest inspirations Johan Cruyff said you cannot play football with fear. “I was an assistant to the coach back then and I like to reminisce about this game,” he said. There is a lot of motivation I can impart to my players but it won’t be reminiscing about the 2004 game.”
