Sofus Nielsen had scored a hat
trick by the 7th minute. He went on to get 10 goals in all. Wolfhagen
got another 4. 3 days into their
international football history Denmark had clocked up 26 goals, 11 of them by
Nielsen.
French football had 2 governing
bodies at the time, both of whom entered teams for the Olympics. The A and B
designation does not reflect the merit of the teams, theoretically they were
equals.

This is not a bad result when
one considers the drubbings that England’s Amateurs routinely meted out. In the 10th match played by the selection,
this was the narrowest victory they had achieved.
