suggested Hagbard Vestergaard (DEN) as referee.

Miscellaneous:
Paul Berth and Sophus Hansen both now hold the record of most played
internationals (19).
Poul Nielsen's 5 goals in 10 minutes are believed to be a world record, as
are Denmark's 7 goals in 15 minutes of 2nd half.
Denmark fielded only 10 players at the beginning of this international. The
back, Johannes Hansen, insisted on having a haircut prior to the match,
and the Norwegians accepted the postponement. Hearing that Johannes
Hansen had arrived at Idrætsparken, Ernst Albihn demanded the kick-off.
