Dutch delight as the Group of Death serves up a classic
After the tedium of France’s insipid goalless draw with Romania in Zurich earlier in the day had left many viewers wondering quite how Group C had earned the clichéd title of “The Group of Death”, Holland & Italy served up a footballing treat in the balmy evening heat of Berne. Neil Jones reports.
Owen rescues more than just a point at St Andrews
When Joey Barton converted a stoppage time penalty at Fulham on December 15th, Newcastle fans could have been forgiven for thinking their side may well have turned the corner.
