The coach of the Randers team Ove Christensen became agitated when asked after the match against Brondby whether he could stay on as coach. He responded by saying he would not answer “stupid questions.” He then hit reporter Rasmus Lund on the right shoulder and walked away.
Randers spokesman Ib Rasmussen told The Associated Press on Tuesday that Christensen’s dismissal was not related but was a result of the club’s “poor result.” Christensen joined the team in 2009. It is 10th in the 12-team Danish league.
