Miscellaneous:
  Paul Berth and Poul Nielsen were jointly the 3rd and 4th players to reach
    25 internationals for Denmark.
  One source states an attendance of 30,000.
  The Danish Deputy Representative in Liège, Mr Dresse-Delloye, awarded DBU
    with a bronze statute, "le Défi" - The Challenge - made by a Belgian
    artist, Mr Moreau. DBU agreed with Mr Dresse-Delloye and the Belgian FA
    that Denmark and Belgium should play eachother 4 times for the statute.
    Matches 1 to 3 were played in 1924, 1932, and 1933. When Denmark played
    Belgium again in 1970, both DBU and the Belgian FA had forgotten all
    about the trophy.
