If football’s not your thing, you’re probably going to struggle if you get a question on the subject on a quiz show.
But the answer this Tipping Point contestant gave to a question about Peter Schmeichel was wrong in pretty spectacular fashion.

Yes, poor Bev thought the English club the Great Dane played for between 1991 and 1999 was Germany.Here’s a clue if you need the correct answer.
“My husband’s going to be so cross with me,” Bev said when she realised her error.Of course, not only is Germany – y’know – not an English football club, it’s also not the country Schmeichel was from. He won 129 caps for Denmark.
