Take time to relive the greatest goal from a Netherlands Argentina World Cup game

DENNIS BERGKAMP! DENNIS BERGKAMP! DENNIS BERGKAMP!

THE COUNTDOWN IS on to tonight’s second World Cup semi-final with the Netherlands and Argentina set to battle it out for the right to face Germany in Sunday’s final.

There’s a bit of World Cup history between this pair with four previous meetings that featured one of the greatest goals in the history of the game.

It’s always worth reliving THAT Dennis Bergkamp goal from the 1998 quarter-final in Marseille which sealed a 2-1 victory for the Netherlands.

Take a bow Frank De Boer for the raking long pass.

Take a bow Jack Van Gelder for the ecstatic commentary.

And take a bow Bergkamp for that first touch and the sublime finish.

Can Messi and Argentina surmount Van Gaal’s Oranje hurdle tonight?
