COPENHAGEN, May 27: Denmark goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen may not play in their opening Euro 2012 match against Netherlands, coach Morten Olsen said on Saturday.

Speaking after a 3-1 friendly defeat by Brazil, Olsen was critical of the Stoke City goalkeeper who was substituted in     the first-half suffering from a back injury.    “It’s a goalkeeper drop, no doubt about it,” Olsen told TV3. “I’ve always said that... it’s good that we are clear about who the first-choice goalkeeper is.”

“But I’ve also said — and not least about the goakeeper’s position — that it’s about finding a formation where the individuals are in good form.”

Also in contention to replace Sorensen is Manchester United’s Anders Lindegaard who has recovered from a knee injury.—Reuters
