International
Andersen made his debut for Denmark in a May 1969 friendly match against Mexico and earned a total of 2 caps, scoring no goals. His second and final international was three weeks later, a World Cup qualification match against Ireland.

Managerial career
As manager he has managed Akademisk Boldklub a couple of times, but he is most famous for his controversies with FC Copenhagen chairman Flemming Østergaard and former chairman of Akademisk Boldklub, Per Frimann. The first controversy was about Andersen being fired as manager of FC Copenhagen after only one match, and the other because Andersen in his autobiography called Frimann the reason why AB had had economic problems. Frimann began talking about a possible lawsuit, but this was solved, when Andersen made a public apology.
