The ex-Celtic, kilt-wearing honorary Scot plotting England's Euro 2020 downfall
Should tomorrow night’s second Euro 2020 semi-final go to penalties, as happened the last time England reached this stage of the competition, it’s unlikely someone will miss the target by a distance of several yards.
Not intentionally at least. That is what happened when Morten Wieghorst stepped up to take a spot kick in 2003. It was well reported at the time and, to this day, features high up in lists detailing most heartwarming moments in sport.
Wieghorst’s display of sportsmanship while playing for Denmark against Iran in the New Year Cup in Hong Kong was hailed by the crowd and later recognised by the Olympic Committee in the form of a fair play award.
