Really, now, all I can remember is Gascoigne's wonder goal, and that we beat the Dutch quite handsomely somewhat against wider expectations...
I don't really follow England football now (never did, really)... I watched the game the other night as it was being held just down the road, and only knew about 3 of the players... I realise this is probably due to the fact that, in the last ten years, my team have only been in the premier league for one of them, but, even in that one year, I didn't pay much attention to the other teams other than as they played in front of me...
