UEFA decision to continue the game Denmark vs Finland criticized Peter Schmeichel, legend Denmark National Team and Manchester United. The man who brought Denmark the champion European Cup 1992 that UEFA judged it was ridiculous to continue the match after Christian Eriksen collapse.
“I want to note that it’s ridiculous that UEFA gave such a solution. Something bad happened, and UEFA gave the players the option of going out and playing the last 55 minutes or whatever it was, or coming back at 12 o’clock today, I mean what kind of choice that?” Schmeichel told BBC Radio 5 Live.
“So you go back to the hotel, when Denmark have 45 minutes played, you won’t be able to sleep. You might not sleep because watching trauma like that can have a big impact. Then you get back on the team bus, and at 8 play the rest of the game. It’s not an option. It was a ridiculous decision by UEFA, and they should have tried to come up with a different scenario and show a little mercy and they didn’t.”
“I do not know [solusi alternatif seperti apa], but why should it be 12 o’clock? Why consider TV scheduling and all that. Why 12 o’clock? That’s ridiculous, and if I’m being honest, the outcome of the game is completely irrelevant. We make a decision if the players go out and play, they will only play if Christian is okay and that means fine. He’s still alive and speaking to the players, they know he’s fine.”
“It was very, very difficult and I couldn’t understand the decision. I couldn’t and the match was completely irrelevant. How did you get to play?” explained Schmeichel.
