The Leicester City goalkeeper was close to becoming the hero of the semi-finals. After Harry’s shot, Kane tried to catch the ball, but it slipped out of his hands and the English sniper had a chance to finish off.
Television reruns showed that one of the fans was shining a laser in Schmeichel’s eyes. However, this situation did not affect the goalkeeper intervention, which he himself openly admits.
– I didn’t feel the laser on the penalty kick. The person who did this was behind me, to my right – revealed the goalkeeper.
It turns out that the Dane had previously complained about being blinded by the laser. He told the referee about it before the start of extra time.
– I experienced it during the second half. I told the judge about it. He went to talk to one of the other officials – He admitted.
Ultimately, however, there was no further intervention in this matter during the meeting. It was only after the match that UEFA announced that it would initiate an investigation against the fans.
