Kasper Schmeichel had a Man of the Match winning performance in Denmark's Euro 2020 qualifier against Switzerland, making a save right at the death for the win.

Another superb save from Kasper Schmeichel, right at the death! The entire Danish team crowd around the Leicester man at full-time to congratulate him on a match-winning performance.

If a striker scores 3 goals and deserves the match ball, Schmeichel should go away with the match ball for that match winning performance.

The stand out hero today, securing a clean sheet and a 1-0 win with 4 crucial saves against Switzerland, including a miracle save in the last second.
Easiest MotM I've seen in a while.
And of course Schmeichel saves Denmark again in the 95th minute. That was one of the best goalkeeper performances I've seen in a long time.

Yussuf Poulsen scored the winner but Schmeichel was the Danish hero.
Schmeichel was immense. Every player going to him at the end summed up his performance. Absolute quality.

Kasper Schmeichel has just pulled off one of the most amazing performances I have ever seen by a goalkeeper. Yussuf Poulsen got the goal, but Schmeichel was out of this world as they beat the Swiss 1-0.

The win means that both Denmark and Ireland, who earlier drew 0-0 with Georgia, are on 12 points with just two games left for each to play in the qualifiers.
The two sides play each other in the final game of the group in Dublin on November 18th whilst Switzerland, who are four points behind the pair, play Ireland on Tuesday.
