International Career
While at Køge, Ankergen played his first youth football for Denmark, making his debut for the under-17s in August 1995. He played three games for the under-21s, but found himself the reserve of Rune Pedersen and eventually Stephan Andersen. While at Brøndby, he served as sparring partner in various Danish national team training sessions around 2003. In October 2006 he received a call-up to the Denmark national team by manager Morten Olsen, as a replacement for injured Thomas Sørensen, but he was an unused substitute in the game, and has not featured in a Danish squad since.
In January 2006 and January 2007, he played unofficial international games with the Denmark League XI national football team.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.”
—Ruth Behar (b. 1956)
