Bendtner: I'm aiming for English scalp

Striker Nicklas Bendtner has said that he's determined to help Denmark defeat England in tonight's friendly in Copenhagen.

The Danish international jokingly said that he needed to win to avoid abuse from his Arsenal colleagues.

Denmark defeat England 4-1 in August 2005, coincidentally in Copenhagen as well.

Bendtner is hoping for a repeat result, aware that the England side are always dangerous opposition.

Speaking to Sky Sports News, Bendtner said: "I think it is going to be a really exciting match.

"I think it will be a tough game and there will be a lot of people looking at the game with high expectations.

"England are a strong team so we have to play well and try to beat them.

"It is a special game because you always want to do well when you are playing for your country, and I will try to do that.

"It's always fun to be able to say we beat you guys and so on and so on. If we lose I will get it for the remainder of the year."
