Career
Blicher played 8 games for the Denmark national football team, and was the captain of the Danish team at the 1952 Summer Olympics. Blicher was a technically limited player, who more than compensated through an immense fighting spirit. He played his club football in Copenhagen with KFUM"s Boldklub and later Akademisk Boldklub (Bachelor of Arts).
In Bachelor of Arts, his favorite half-back position was occupied by Danish international Ivan Jensen, and Blicher played some matches as a left winger.
When Ivan Jensen turned professional following the 1948 Summer Olympics, Blicher replaced him as the Bachelor of Arts left half-back. Blicher made his debut for the Danish national team on May 12, 1951, in a 1-3 defeat to the Scotland national football team
In the last warm-up game before the 1952 Summer Olympics, the Danish team captain, Knud Lundberg, was removed from the position, and Steen Blicher was assigned the position. As Lundberg was Blicher"s captain at Bachelor of Arts, it was an awkward appointment, but Blicher led the team well through example.
Denmark was eliminated by the Yugoslavia national football team in the quarter-finals by 3-5, which was Blicher"s last international game.
