Danish goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel attended the team's pre-match press conference with England today, and he teased England for never winning the European Championship.
Modern football originated in England, and the love of football in England may be the most fanatical in the world, but england have never been able to succeed in international competitions, and so far they have only won the 1966 homegrown World Cup.
Now that England have reached the semi-finals of the European Championship, England are very optimistic about winning the title this year, considering that the rest of the matches will be held in London.
For years, when England performed well in the big game, British fans would always sing the phrase "football is home" from the song "The Three Lions", but this sentence was ridiculed by Danish goalkeeper Schmeichel Jr.
Asked how to stop "football from coming home", Schmeichel Jr. laughed at the press conference and said: "Football is home? Has it ever returned home? I mean, have England ever won a title? ”
The reporter said: "I returned home in 1966. ”
Schmeichel asked: "Isn't that the World Cup?" What about the European Championship? Ever won? ”
Denmark won the European Championship in 1992 and will face England in the semi-finals.
