Lyngby Stadion inKongens Lyngby ,Denmark . From 1994 to 2001 the club was known as Lyngby FC.This club has won the Danish championship twice (1983 and 1992) and the
Danish Cup three times (1984, 1985 and 1990). In December 2001 the club went bankrupt and was forced to finish the season using only amateur players. Hardly surprising, the team finished the season in last place and was subsequently relegated an additional two leagues due to the bankruptcy. As a result, the team went straight from playing in the Superliga to playing in theamateur leagueDanmarksserien , just below the three Danish pro leagues. In 2003 the team was promoted to the 2nd Division (the third best league), as winner of Danmarksserien, and onJune 18 ,2005 the team gained promotion to the 1st Division by finishing 3rd in the 2nd Division.In the 2006-07 season the team won the
Danish 1st Division and is back in the top flight only five and a half seasons after going bankrupt. Another highlight of the 2006-07 season occurred onApril 12 ,2007 as Lyngby advanced to the semi-finals of theDanish Cup for the first time in several years, by winning 1-0 againstAC Horsens onLyngby Stadion .Among former players are Danish internationals
Klaus Berggreen ,Henrik Larsen ,Miklos Molnar andBent Christensen and current internationalsDennis Rommedahl andNiclas Jensen . Swedish internationalMarcus Allbäck briefly played for the club in the late 1990s. Four Lyngby players were on the Danish team that won the1992 European Football Championship .As of 2007 the club's
Old Boys team is among the best in Denmark featuring several well known players such asMichael Laudrup ,Brian Laudrup and aforementioned Berggreen and Larsen.The club is renowned for their youth program and the club won the U-18 league in the 2006 season. Several current A-international players started their careers in Lyngby including
