England Charged by UEFA After Fan Shines Laser Pen at Kasper Schmeichels’ Face
England charged over laser pen incident as second ball on pitch also adds to winning penalty controversy
Kasper Schmeichel saved Kane's penalty, but attempts to distract him added to the controversy - and now UEFA have acted
Telegraph UK, 8 JUL 2021.
England charged by UEFA after fan shines laser pen at Kasper Schmeichel’s face and crowd boos Denmark national anthem
ENGLAND have been hit with three charges from UEFA after their sensational 2-1 Euro 2020 semi-final victory against Denmark.
A laser pen was shone in Denmark keeper Kasper Schmeichel's eyes just before Harry Kane took his penalty.
Miraculously the Leicester star still managed to save the spot-kick before Kane tucked home the rebound.
UEFA have charged England for this, as well as for fans booing the Danish national anthem and for 'letting off fireworks'.
A statement from the football governing body added:
"The case will be dealt with by the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body (CEDB) in due course."
