Malta                    0

Denmark             8

Malta suffered another heavy 8-0 defeat against group leaders Denmark at Ta’ Qali, in a repeat score of the match in Copenhagen in August 2019. As expected there was no match between the two sides with the Danes notching the seventh consecutive victory in the group.

Denmark scored two goals in the opening seven minutes of the game through Larsen and Nadim and added a third three minutes from the break again through Nadim

On the resumption Denmark scored five more goals with Troelsgaard scoring a brace, with other goals from Harder, Junge-Pedersen, and Bruun.  

The result leaves Malta in fifth place of the six-team group, with four points above bottom placed Georgia who are still in search of their first point. Malta’s next match in the group will be in fact against Georgia in Tbilisi on 26 November.

Malta: J. Xuereb, C. Zammit, S. Zammit, D. Theuma (A. Said 70’), A. Sultana, E. Lipman, J. Flask (N. Sciberras 31’), S. Farrugia, M. Farrugia, R. Cuschieri, H. Bugeja (Y. Carabott 75’)
