    One of my earliest memories of watching football, and doubt it will be topped when it comes to International football for me.

    Ray Houghton’s goal and before that Packie Bonner’s save v the Romanian’s was one of my earliest World Cup memories.

    Was in Florida at the time, sat in a sports bar with loads of English guys in it.

    It was absolutely magnificent.
