Thomas Myhre - International

International

Myhre was selected to represent Norway at the 1998 FIFA World Cup, where he was an unused substitute for Frode Grodås.

At the 2000 European Championship (Euro 2000) in June, he played all three games for Norway. Myhre kept clean sheets against Spain and Slovenia, and conceded only one goal in the tournament - Savo Milosevic's winner in the match against Yugoslavia.

In an Euro 2008 qualifier against Turkey on 28 March 2007, Norway were leading 2-0 at half time. In the second half, Myhre couldn't hold a free kick from Hamit Altıntop, and fumbled the ball into his own net. Minutes before full-time, another Altıntop shot went straight through Myhre's legs, and the game ended 2-2. Although his Norwegian teammates were consoling him, Myhre proclaimed the match his "worst day on the field". The game against Turkey is still Myhre's last game for Norway and would most likely be it as his career is coming to an end.
