COPENHAGEN/BAANWAYABAD: As Denmark’s fixation with the year 1992 increases amid the national football team defying odds to reach the semifinal of the ongoing Euro 2020, the country has been warned that such an obsession can have nasty ramifications.
Ahead of the Danish team’s semifinal against England on Wednesday, Denmark was informed that giving the year 1992 more importance than any other calendar year can lead to unspeakable horrors.
“This is especially true of any sporting achievements during that year, especially if they are perceived to be the single biggest success of the national team in the most popular sport of the country,” the Scandinavian country was duly informed.
“This also includes anything resembling a wish to see a repeat of 1992, which can self-manifest in links being imagined in tournaments.”
This information was shared just as Denmark continued to collectively mull 1992 mein bhi yehi hua tha. This included starting as underdogs, with Schmeichel in goal as the team progresses through the tournament with its star player missing.
“Come what may, do not give the Euro 1992 trophy more importance than a sporting accolade,” the Danes were told. “You don’t want the much cherished ‘1992 highlights’ to become a slur in your country.”
“1992 mein bhi,” continued Denmark’s subconscious at press time on Tuesday, paying no heed to the warnings.
