The Oresund Bridge connects Malmo and Copenhagen, facilitating daily commutes for tens of thousands. The football rivalry between Malmo FF and FC Copenhagen is intense, as illustrated by Malmo's winger Jens Stryger Larsen, who led fans in chanting against Copenhagen after a recent match. Danish police criticized this behavior for inciting hostility. Despite Malmo's smaller stature and its fans' feelings of rivalry, the cities maintain a friendly relationship. Animosity between the teams can be traced back to a violent incident during a 2005 match, resulting in long-lasting tensions between their supporters.
"The name of the bridge Oresund if you're Swedish or resund if you're Danish is one of only a few things that divide the people of the two cities."
"After Malmo beat Latvia's RFS in a Champions League qualifier last week their winger Jens Stryger Larsen...led the club's supporters in a vociferous chorus of We hate Copenhagen."
