As the world's best footballers prepare for the upcoming FIFA World Cup, Danish star Christian Eriksen is facing the biggest match of his career. Coming off a month of stellar performances, Eriksen will lead his country in a do-or-die World Cup qualifier against Australia on March 29th.
Eriksen has been in scintillating form for both club and country in recent weeks. For his club, Manchester United, he has scored three goals and assisted two in the team's last five matches. His performances have helped United climb up to fourth place in the Premier League standings.
For Denmark, Eriksen has been equally impressive. In the team's two most recent World Cup qualifiers, he scored one goal and assisted another in a 4-0 win over Austria and a 2-0 victory over Faroe Islands.
Denmark currently sit second in Group F of the World Cup qualifiers, three points behind leaders Austria. A win over Australia will secure Denmark's spot in the World Cup, while a draw or loss could see them miss out on the tournament.
Eriksen knows that the pressure is on him to deliver for his country. "It's the biggest game of my career," he said. "I'm determined to help Denmark qualify for the World Cup."
Eriksen is the heart and soul of the Danish team. He is their most creative player and their captain. His ability to control the tempo of the game and create chances for his teammates is crucial to Denmark's success.
In the absence of other world-class players, Eriksen's role in the team is even more important. He is the one who makes the team tick and the one who can inspire them to victory.
Australia will be no pushovers for Denmark. The Socceroos are ranked 38th in the world, and they have a number of talented players in their squad, including Aaron Mooy, Awer Mabil, and Mathew Leckie.
Australia will be looking to make history by qualifying for the World Cup for the fifth time in a row. They will be confident that they can get a result against Denmark and book their place in Qatar.
