First Published: Apr 25, 2001

Denmark marked Peter Schmeichel's retirement with an easy 3-0 win over Slovenia in Copenhagen.

This was Schmeichel's 129th and final appearance for the Danish team and he led them to a 1992 European Championship win in his most memorable spell with the national side.

Jesper Gronkjare scored his first goal for Denmark with a 61st minute cross shot with Jon Dahl Tomasson sealing the win by converting a 68th minute penalty kick he had won for himself with a turn in the penalty area and foul.

Bundesliga top scorer Ebbe Sand continued his great form of recent weeks with eight minutes to go when he scored from close range.
