When Peter Schmeichel and Paulo Wanchope eventually became team-mates at Manchester City, the pair developed a running joke in the dressing room.
Wanchope recalls: ‘Whenever we talked about that goal, Schmeichel said to me, “I made you famous because I let you score that one”.’
The goal in question, of course, is Wanchope’s dazzling strike at Old Trafford, on the day he made his bow in English football for Derby County in a famous 3-2 victory. As part of Derby’s 125th anniversary celebrations in 2009, the club’s supporters voted Wanchope’s goal as the greatest in their history.
