First capped by Czechoslovakia in 1988, he won three of his 19 caps at the 1990 FIFA World Cup. • Had brief spell at Sparta Praha, winning the final Czechoslovakian championship in 1993. Won a further dozen caps for Slovakia, scoring his country's first post-independence goal, against United Arab Emirates in February 1994. Ended playing career with Artmedia, serving as an assistant coach until 2000 when he took the top job. • Led Artmedia to Slovakian league title and cup final in 2005 before knocking out Celtic and Partizan to reach UEFA Champions League group stage, where they registered a famous 3-2 win at Porto. Left for Russian club Saturn in early 2006 but returned to Artmedia 18 months later and masterminded domestic double. • Appointed national team coach in June 2008 in place of Ján Kocian and steered Slovakia to first appearance at a World Cup finals as qualifying group winners, including historic 2-1 win away to the Czech Republic. Even better followed in South Africa, Slovakia reaching the last 16 by eliminating holders Italy before losing to the Netherlands. • Coached Slovakia in tandem with Slovan Bratislava in 2011/12 and led his home-town club into their first UEFA Europa League group stage. Nearly did the same with Kairat, only losing against Bordeaux on away goals in play-offs. Left Almaty in November 2015 having won Kazakhstan Cups in successive seasons. Hired by Georgia in March 2016, he was unable to oversee a win in 2018 World Cup qualifying as his team picked up five points from ten matches but did guide them to promotion in the inaugural UEFA Nations League. Åge Hareide Date of birth: 23 September 1953 Nationality: Norwegian Playing career: Hødd, Molde (twice), Manchester City, Norwich Coaching career: Molde (twice), Helsinborg (twice), Brøndby, Rosenborg, Norway, Örgryte, Viking, Malmö, Denmark • Having trained as a tax accountant before turning professional, Hareide was a physical defender who represented his country 50 times between 1976 and 1986. His club career took him from Molde to Manchester City and then Norwich in the English top flight. • Hareide made the transition to coaching before hanging up his boots. After returning from England he acted as Molde player-coach for two seasons. From 1987 he focused solely on coaching and a second spell as Molde boss brought his first silverware – the 1994 Norwegian Cup. His first trophy in Sweden was also the cup, with Helsingborg in 1998. In 2003, Hareide added a further Norwegian Cup as coach of Rosenborg. • Hareide is the only coach to have won league titles in Sweden (Helsingborg 1999, Malmö 2014), Denmark (Brøndby 2001/02) and Norway (Rosenborg 2003). • Coached Norway from January 2004 until December 2008. Under Hareide, Norway made it to the play-offs for the 2006 FIFA World Cup but lost 2-0 on aggregate to the Czech Republic. • Returned to Helsingborg in 2012 for a six-month spell and steered the side to the UEFA Champions League play- offs. In January 2014 he was appointed by Malmö, leading them to the Swedish title and into the UEFA Champions League group stage for the first time at the start of 2014/15. He repeated the feat when Malmö progressed via the play-offs in 2015/16 before being appointed Denmark coach in December 2015, leading his side to the 2018 World Cup and ultimately the round of 16 in Russia. Oversaw promotion to League A in the UEFA Nations League later that year. 5 Georgia - Denmark Sunday 8 September 2019 - 18.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit Boris Paichadze Erovnuli Stadioni, Tbilisi Match officials Referee François Letexier (FRA) Assistant referees Cyril Mugnier (FRA) , Mehdi Rahmouni (FRA) Fourth official Jérôme Brisard (FRA) UEFA Delegate Robert Barczi (HUN) UEFA Referee observer Peter Fröjdfeldt (SWE) Referee UEFA EURO Name Date of birth UEFA matches matches François Letexier 23/04/1989 1 17 UEFA European Championship matches featuring the two countries involved in this match No such matches refereed Other matches involving teams from either of the two countries involved in this match No such matches refereed 6 Georgia - Denmark Sunday 8 September 2019 - 18.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit Boris Paichadze Erovnuli Stadioni, Tbilisi Match-by-match lineups Georgia Final tournament - Qualifying round Group D Team Pld W D L GF GA Pts Switzerland 8 5 2 1 19 6 17 Denmark 8 4 4 0 23 6 16 Republic of Ireland 8 3 4 1 7 5 13 Georgia 8 2 2 4 7 11 8 Gibraltar 8 0 0 8 3 31 0 Matchday 1 (23/03/2019) Georgia 0-2 Switzerland Goals: 0-1 St.
