I was 10 and this was my first football match. I had a bad cold/flu and woke up to the crowd roaring for the second goal.

In those days, Gascoigne seemed to saunter past opponents without using a huge turn of speed.

Great pub trivia question here. Hodgson and Venables both at wembley but only one in charge of england.

[@jimbxbjones]

nowadays that stones goal would have been called offside?

[@kebanyas1794]

+LAPPINGJIM no, Stone was onside when Shearer shot.

[@jimbxbjones]

didn't look like it to me, ah well

[@HPRam]

If you freeze frame it, looks like Stone's just onside as Shearer strikes it but it's touch and go - wonder if the linesman would've had a good view of it and caught it exactly.

[@GeordieBoy1955]

John Gardner Roy Hodgson, Head Coach of Switzerland at the time. He would go on to manage the England team from May 2012 to June 2016.
