Denmark beats Austria to qualify for Qatar 2022
Denmark qualified for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar as they maintained their 100% record with a 1-0 win over Austria in Copenhagen.
Joakim Maehle scored the only goal for the hosts, with a low effort into the bottom left corner after Thomas Delaney’s superb run.
It deservedly gave the Danes their eighth consecutive victory in Group F taking them to twenty points, seven points clear off second-place Scotland with two games remaining.

Atalanta full-back Maehle has now scored five goals in his last nine appearances for Kasper Hjulmand’s side.
Coupled with Scotland securing a late win in the Faroe Islands, the result means that Austria’s hopes of reaching the finals are now reliant upon last year’s Nations League performance taking them into the play-offs.
