Midtjylland takes on the giants of Danish football
Midtjylland, based near Herning, has shown strong progress in recent years against the dominance of the capital, Copenhagen. Representing a town of fewer than 60,000 people, the club sits just behind the leader in the league table.
Midtjylland is located on the Jutland peninsula, near Herning. The club was founded in 1999 through the merger of two second-division teams and represents a town with a population of fewer than 60,000.
Over the last 12 seasons, the club has won four league titles. Last season it won the Danish Cup and beat Celtic and Nottingham Forest in the Europa League.
The report says Midtjylland is only behind Copenhagen in the league table. Copenhagen, meanwhile, is Denmark's most successful club, with a record 16 league titles.
To learn how the club has achieved this success, the writer sets out on a road that leads to empty fields near Herning. At the end of the road, they reach a grey, austere building that resembles a bunker from the 007 film GoldenEye.
