BOOK SYNOPSIS
They were a team of rock stars in a polyester kit.
Hailing from a country with little football history and a population of just five million, the Denmark side of the 1980s was one of the last truly iconic international football teams. Although they didn't win a trophy, they claimed something much more enduring:glory, and in huge quantities.
Nicknamed Danish Dynamite, they were a bewitching fusion of futuristic attacking football, effortless Scandinavian coll and laid-back living, and they were everyone's second team in the mid-1980s.
Danish Dynamite is a story of zombies, Denmark's biggest selling pop single, the greatest ever World Cup qualifier and one of football's most remarkable kits. It is a joyous celebration of one of the most life-affirming teams the world has ever seen.
