The Danish Deputy Representative in Liège, Mr Dresse-Delloye, awarded DBU
with a bronze statute, "le Défi" - The Challenge - made by a Belgian
artist, Mr Moreau. DBU agreed with Mr Dresse-Delloye and the Belgian FA
that Denmark and Belgium should play eachother 4 times for the statute.
Matches 1 to 3 were played in 1924, 1932, and 1933. When Denmark played
Belgium again in 1970, both DBU and the Belgian FA had forgotten all
about the trophy.
