The race for gold in Danish football is really something that captures the Danes. We are happy that we, as rights holders, can help break viewership records. It is not only gratifying for us at Viaplay, but also for Danish football."[/b][/p][p]"And of course, interestingly, it is happening in a season where both Brondby and FC Copenhagen are significantly underperforming", says Rune Knudsen, sports director at Viaplay, to Bold.dk[/p][p]Three rounds are remaining in the Danish Superliga. [/p]
