Denmark will face North Macedonia in Parken on March 26 and if they win, they will face Ireland or the Czech Republic in a possible final five days later.
Denmark missed a huge opportunity against Belarus and Scotland during the latest World Cup qualifiers, but Riemer is determined that his team will secure a World Cup ticket in March.
It's a draw that will ensure we secure a World Cup ticket. That's our big goal and our expectation.
