The Danish star had springs in his feet
Peter Schmeichel is one of the greatest players to wear the number one jersey.
He's part of the BBC TV team for Euro 2004 and he reveals which keepers to look out for in Portugal.
I think Spain's Santiago Canizares is possibly the best goalkeeper in the world. The Valencia star doesn't make things more difficult than they should be. Nowadays you see a lot of keepers making life complicated for themselves. They try things with their feet or their throws and end up making some really silly mistakes.
But he keeps things very simple, which reduces the risk of giving away the ball. He may not get ahead of Real Madrid's Iker Casillas in the Spanish team though. Some think he's a bit crazy! I know he dyes his hair and rolls his socks over his knees, but that doesn't really matter! As long as he's keeping it simple and making no mistakes, that's fine by me.
