This is it, for
Martin O’ Neill and his Boys in Green from the Republic of Ireland playing this
weekend for what can be their pass to the grand fete of world football in
Russia against a resilient and dangerous Denmark squad.
Come this Saturday November
11 in Copenhagen colossus FC Kobenhavn, the first leg between the Green Army
and the always-tough Danish Dynamite as many call the Danes.
With many Danish
players in La Liga, English Premier League, Calcio Italiano, Eredivisie and
Bundesliga to name a few important leagues and with players of the likes o0f
Tottenham Christian Eriksen, Leicester City Kapser Schmeichel and Sevilla Simon
Kjaer.
Despite the advantage,

clear favorite.
As the Republic of
