Harder wrote in a piece, “There was no future for me in the club and when I was about 14 years old, I had to go away for an hour,” Harder wrote a piece Mentor Last month. “Now, these girls are quick here-perhaps a little quickly and already in small talent teams with high quality training. They are being given an opportunity to develop in a way, which was not my generation.”

Despite the adversity faced in its formal years, a 32 -year -old has moved forward to enjoy a stellar game career and is widely considered one of the best attackers in women’s football history. Even in the initial minutes of Friday’s confrontation with Sweden, it was easy to see why he is so distinguished by fans.

The clock was barely a minute when Sweden won a corner right in front of his overwhelming travel support. Straight, hard set to organize your peers, scream the instructions and to lead for example. When Denmark is removed Jona AndersonCross and quickly launched a counter-atac, the harder immediately took down his head and sprinkled the length of the pitch, ready to provide himself if his peers needed him. This is the desire and penance that is very characteristic of the harder’s career till date and has allowed it to win the major silver utensils in three different countries for four different clubs.

The Harder first exploded the scene during his time at the Swedish Side Linkopings FC and was named Danish Football Player of the Year in 2015. Two years later, he took a step in the German club Wolfsburg, where he won a league and a cup double in four consecutive sessions. but it was Chelsey Where the difficult actually increased to international prominence.

When a serious hamstring injury sidelined her for a long time for a long time in the 2022-23 season, Hayes called her “irreparable” and when it was confirmed Bayern MunichHis manager said that the club would miss “the thirst of winning”. Certainly, the Harder’s winning mindset is one of the many things that have ended him for Denmark supporters as Forward started his national team in 2009.

“He is always hungry to score, every time,” Denmark fan University Burtelseen told ESPN. “She is attacking a lot in her movements, and she always takes herself to ensure that she is available every moment.

In the previous season, he scored 14 Fraun-Bundeliga goals for Bayern, as he was thrilled for the title for his country-for which he has scored 78 goals in 162 demonstrations-that still remains a bright light.

Denmark manager Jeglortz said, “Parnil is a very talented footballer.” Uefa.com On the eve of this summer tournament. “She has won the league with various clubs for the last nine or ten years and has developed as a dynamic footballer, which can actually be used in any attacker position on the pitch.

So, as a footballer, it is very good,” she is very good, “she is very good,” she is very good, “she is very good,” Is, “

In recent years, that leadership has mentioned beyond football. When a photo of sharing a kiss with your fellow and fellow professional footballer Magdelena Ericheson The 2019 Women went viral during the World Cup, the Harder made the headlines in the headlines for very different reasons. Both he and Ericason – who were on the bench for the opponents Sweden at Stad Day Jeenav on Friday – have become emotional lawyers for inclusion in football and have never away from accepting the importance of LGBTQ+ representation in the game.

“It was crazy, the picture was tweeted all over the world,” the harder told Mentor In 2019. “We have always been natural, not thinking so much about inspirations together, pictures of each other or anything like that.

“But when we saw that photo and the comments around it, it was actually something; such as: ‘We are a role model.” We had many young people, people of our age, but also big people. ,

Ericson’s Sweden team colleagues performed well on Friday evening to remain tough silent, although he presented a tentalizing glimpse of his star quality, when he rubbed the crossbar with a audacious strike in the game late as Denmark chased a equalizer. Even when she was shocked by the mouth in the stoppage time, she returned to the pitch as soon as possible after leading with the ice pack pressed against her face. She has again proved the time and time that she is capable of delivering on a big occasion, and fans will definitely be hoping that she can do so again in Denmark’s upcoming matches. Germany And Poland,
