Gazza's goal, Macca's miss & heroic Hutch: England-Scotland Special

Tomorrow, England play oldest rivals Scotland at Wembley in their European Championships group game. We dug into the Big Interview archives and unearthed the recollections of three men who engaged in two famous Euros encounters between the Auld Enemies at the old Wembley in the 1990s.One of Darren Anderton’s career highs occurred in June 1996 when England defeated the Scots 2-0. He set up Paul Gascoigne for his memorable goal with a superb pass. Darren tells us about the incredible feeling of that summer in England.For a Scottish perspective, we first hear from Gary McAllister, who featured in the ’96 match’s pivotal moment. With the score at 1-0, David Seaman saved Gary’s penalty. Moments later, Darren picked out Gazza. Sheer agony.Three years later, Scotland reclaimed pride in the second leg of a European Championships play-off qualifier. They trailed 2-0 from the Hampden match and would ultimately go out, but not without bloodying English noses with a magnificent 1-0 Wembley victory. The scorer and star of the show was Don Hutchison, and we hear from him last.Scotland fans and England fans, whet your appetite with this special preview episode of the Big Interview.GrahamSubscribe to The Big Interview YouTube channel Hosted on Acast.

The case of the missing Gerard

24 hours later, I still can't figure out why Luis Enrique didn't go with Gerard Moreno earlier in their frustrating but not entirely unloveable 0-0 draw with Sweden. I traveled five hours up through Spain to see him back on the training pitch. Plus, I wonder if Gareth Bale can leave his mark on one more tournament for Wales. Hosted on Acast.

Alfred Hitchcock presents... Spain 0 Sweden 0

I recorded this as soon as my work was done last night. It's my first reaction to the first game in Spain's Euros, an intriguing and dramatic draw.This was a lop-sided, tension-filled, Hitchockian classic for Spain watchers. And despite their failure to score, they looked pretty damn good to me.We want your questions for these daily shows, so if there's anything you've seen you want me to talk about, anything you want to know - ask!  Hosted on Acast.
