Johanna Maria Baltensberger Rasmussen (born 2 July 1983) is a Danish professional footballer, who represents Swedish Damallsvenskan club Kristianstads DFF and the Denmark women's national football team. She plays as a left winger or forward and wears the number 13 shirt for both Kristianstads and Denmark.

Club career

In February 2002 Rasmussen was reported to be joining Texas Tech University on a soccer scholarship.[2] Instead she moved to Fortuna Hjørring in summer 2002.

Rasmussen represented Fortuna Hjørring in both legs of the 2003 UEFA Women's Cup Final, a 1–7 aggregate defeat to Umeå IK of Sweden. After 125 appearances for Fortuna, Rasmussen signed a contract with Umeå IK ahead of the Swedish 2008 season.[3]

In 2010 Rasmussen followed Umeå teammates Ramona Bachmann and Mami Yamaguchi to the American Women's Professional Soccer (WPS) league, playing the 2010 season with Atlanta Beat who finished last. She began the following campaign with magicJack, but after scoring once in eight appearances negotiated a release from her contract to return to Europe.

She signed with Kristianstads DFF in August 2011.[4]
