1964 Danish Cup Final
The 1964 Danish Cup Final (Danish: DBUs Landspokalfinale 1964) was a men's association football match between Esbjerg fB and Odense KFUM played at Københavns Idrætspark on 7 May 1964. It was the final match to determine the winner of the 1963–64 Danish Cup, the 10th season of the Danish national-wide annual football knockout competition, the Danish Cup, open to all DBU member clubs. This was the first time that two sides had ever met in a domestic cup competition and only the third time in a competitive league game. For Odense KFUM, the match represented their first opportunity to win a title on a national level, having never reached the quarterfinals in previous seasons in the cup's current incarnation, while Esbjerg fB were participating in their third cup final, having lost on both previous occasions. This was the third consecutive year the tournament's final featured a team from Odense.

Esbjerg fB played in the then top flight of Danish association football, 1st Division, and bypassed the initial stages of the tournament with an entry into the third round proper, while 2nd Division club Odense KFUM entered one round earlier. The last three season's reigning Danish league champions Esbjerg fB's road to the final included victories over BK Fremad Valby, Vorup Frederiksberg BK, B 1909 and Akademisk BK. Odense KFUM secured its berth in the final by defeating Holbæk B&IF, Knabstrup IF, Brønshøj BK, Aarhus GF, and the previous league season's runners-up and reigning cup title holders, B 1913.

The crowd of 24,500 witnessed Esbjerg fB defeating Odense KFUM 2–1, winning the competition for the first time in the club's history. The final was the seventh time out of ten occasions, that a team from the Jutland peninsula won the cup title. Esbjerg fB's centre-forward Carl Bertelsen, who scored the first goal of the game, was named as the man of the match (Danish: "Årets Pokalfighter"). As the winner of the tournament, Esbjerg fB qualified for the 1964–65 European Cup Winners' Cup. The last moments of the final and most of the award ceremony were marked by the spectator's deafening antipathy towards the Esbjerg fB-players, which several Danish newspapers characterized as a scandal.
