United, who have been plagued by injuries this season, have been hit hard at the beginning of the international cycle with three of their core players dropping out of the national team for whatever reason. The Danish duo of Helen and Kristian Alexson were injured in the last match and will not be able to participate in the upcoming two European Cup matches, with Kristian Alexson's injury being more serious and is expected to be out for up to a month. As for Darroch, he has withdrawn from the Portuguese national team for personal reasons due to his fiancée's impending labor.
Nonetheless, the Danish national team will still face Slovenia and Northern Ireland, but the absence of Helen and Kristian Alexson is undoubtedly a big blow to the team. United officials confirmed that Helen suffered a knock in the last game, but the injury is not serious and is expected to return by the end of the month, while Kristian Alexson's knee injury is more serious and he is expected to miss a month. For this reason, the Danish team has already selected Zansenachen and Chesperian Strong to replace the two stars.
