Home and away for Eva at Newtown v FC Copenhagen
Newtown Football Club have called in special help for tonight's European match against FC Copenhagen, even though she will be supporting the Danish Team.
Eva Bredsdorff, who was born and brought up in Copenhagen, moved to Mid Wales in 1987 and is the curator of the Powysland Museum in Welshpool.
"I offered to help out in any way I could at the match and they said they would welcome help in the commentary box with pronunciation of names. Mind you with some overseas players I am expecting to trip over some of the names myself."
The 58-year-old was herself an avid footballer, playing for a Copenhagen girls team from the age of 11-16.
"As a child my father took me to see Copenhagen play Manchester United in a pre season friendly. When I saw George Best my 12-year-old heart just melted. He inspired me to play football."
"I am delighted to be helping out the Newtown club - even though I will be supporting Copenhagen," she said.
