Peter Schmeichel

SCHMEICHEL tells the story of arguably the best goalkeeper of all time, Peter Schmeichel. In a professional career spanning 22 years, Schmeichel is one of the most decorated goalkeepers in Premier League history, part of the Danish football team that won the European Championship against all odds in 1992 and captained Manchester United in the incomparable Champions League final in 1999.

1999 was a year of groundbreaking success for England’s biggest and most powerful football club, Manchester United. Despite dominating domestic football during the 90s, manager Alex Ferguson was yet to restore Manchester United’s European glory when in 1999, glory arrived in an unprecedented fashion.
