Peter Schmeichel hugs son Kasper on live TV after interviewing him as pair share special moment following Denmark’s draw with England

Peter Schmeichel shared a touching moment with his son Kasper after Denmark came away with a point from their match against England in Frankfurt on Thursday evening.

The Danes managed to frustrate Gareth Southgate’s men and kept themselves in a good position to qualify for the knockout stages of Euro 2024.

Harry Kane gave the Three Lions an early lead, but Denmark responded brilliantly and Morten Hjulmand leveled the score with a fine goal just before half-time.

The match eventually finished 1-1 with Schmeichel leading the way to deny England’s best chance of the second half when Ollie Watkins was played in by Jude Bellingham.

And Schmeichel senior was clearly proud of his son and his country’s display.

The Man United legend briefly interviewed his son during his role as a pundit on FOX Sports before saying: ‘I do a lot of post-match interviews but I never do this. Well played’

He then hugged his boy live on TV in a moment that warmed the hearts of viewers at home.

Kasper then gave his competition shirt to his father, who said ‘fantastic, there you go’.

The pair both laughed before shaking hands and going their separate ways.

During the interview, Kasper said: ‘I am very proud, that is the Denmark I know.

‘We didn’t win, but the expression of the game, the fight, the heart, the fans, that’s the real Denmark.

‘There’s always a hint of disappointment when we don’t win, but if you look at the game it’s probably a fair result.’

The result puts England two points clear at the top of Group C, while Denmark and Slovenia are level on two points.

In the final round of the groups, England plays against Slovenia and Denmark against Serbia. Both matches will take place on Tuesday at 8 p.m.
