The team had qualified only after Yugoslavia was disqualified as a result of the breakup and warfare in that country.[1] The film examines the often difficult relationship between the team's coach Richard Møller Nielsen, and the Danish Football Association and leading players that nonetheless led to triumph in 1992.
