Schmeichel- Best in goal keeping!!

Goal keepers are considered to be the team saviours when the whole defence of a team get collapsed. They must stand as tall as tower, as strong as wall during those times. I am here to talk about a goal keeper who I admired a lot. He is none other than Peter Bolesław Schmeichel. He is a retired player, who played for Denmark and clubs like Hvidovre, Brøndby, Manchester United, Sporting CP, Aston Villa, Manchester City. He came to the limelight when he played for the Red devils, where he spend around nine dream years. Schmeichel is highly regarded as one of the top ten goal keepers of the 20th century, according to IFFHS. He managed to keep 42% of cleansheets in the premiership. He has a son, Kasper Schmeichel, and he plays for Manchester City FC, who is also a goal keeper.
