Denmark DT Kasper Hjulmand did not understand the change of attitude in FIFA for wearing the colored armband, recalling that his country has been one of those who have raised their voices against everything that has happened in Qatar 2022.

"It should not be a players' decision. Imagine stepping on the pitch before kickoff with a yellow card. That's not possible. We have already played with that armband, especially in UEFA competitions (in the Nations League). We'll see what will happen today with the other teams that have announced they will play with the armband. This will not be the players' decision, but the federation's," he said.

Denmark, along with France, are favored to advance from Group D over Tunisia and Australia, but anything can happen in a World Cup. The odds are heavily in favor of the Danes for this match.

The Tunisian National Team defeated Iran in their last friendly match. In June they won the Kirin Cup after beating Japan 0-3. They qualified for the Qatar 2022 World Cup after beating Mali in the play-off, thanks to Sissako's own goal in the first leg, which gave them the qualification. They want to surprise and qualify for the round of 16 after losing in the group stage in the last edition. 

Kasper Hjulmand leads the Danish National Team, which arrives after winning its last match against the reigning World Champions, France. In a UEFA Nations League that finished second in the group, just one point behind Croatia. The latter qualified for the Qatar 2022 World Cup after a perfect qualification, finishing first in Group F with 27 points out of a possible 30 and with 30 goals scored and only three conceded. This will be Denmark's sixth participation in a World Cup and they will be looking to equal at least their best result, which was in 1998 where they reached the quarterfinals against Brazil. 

Denmark and Tunisia have met twice in history and on both occasions the winner of the duel was the Danish national team. The last time they met was in May 2022 in a friendly match that ended with a 2-1 result. Before that, in 1960, in the group stage, the match ended 3-1 in favor of the Danish team.
