After the enforced break due to the riots of the Admira soccer match in Copenhagen in June 1941, the Danish and German authorities were so concerned about the events of the Admira game being repeated that around 50 security officers were brought in for a boxing tournament in Copenhagen on 8 October 1941. However, Danish–German sporting relations got underway again, even with national team matches going on in Germany and matches with other Axis-power countries. Most notable was an international soccer match in Dresden in November. Gradually, as Germany began running into military difficulties, there was less and less interest, in the words of propaganda minister Goebbels, of seeing Germans losing to weaker nations
