After a shaky start against the Swiss, England got their Euro 96 up-and-running with a 2-0 victory over Scotland - though things could have been very different had it not been for David Seaman’s elbow and Paul Gascoigne’s Midas touch. Nonetheless, Terry Venables’s side went into their final Group A match against the Netherlands with a spring in their stride. What happened next, of course, is one of those JFK moments - where anyone with the remotest fondness for English football remembers what they were doing when the hosts put four past the Dutch at Wembley. It was unquestionably one of the finest performances by an England side for at least a generation. Two people with contrasting memories of that day are Teddy Sheringham and Jordi Cruyff, who subsequently became teammates at Manchester United. Both joined Mark via video link in isolation to share their recollections of that day.
