Ask any British football fan worth his salt about Wimbledon 1996 and they’ll know what you’re talking about.

Beckham, then just 21 years old, scored from within his own half against Wimbledon.

It lost out in the “20 years of the Premier League” best goal award to Wayne Rooney’s overhead kick in the Manchester Derby.

Adebayor looked dangerous, reassuring fans that the strong resurgence in form he showed in the final six matches of 2012/13 will continue. His best effort, a curling side-footed shot, was spectacularly stopped by Vito Mannone.

Despite this, he couldn’t score. He was used as a second striker in the latter half of the match, which ensured he was involved in the game plenty but restricted his own efforts.

Uhh… fantastic vision and control for Tom Huddlestone to lay it off for Cabral with one touch.

Hudds had been playing well until that point, but after this he looked nervous. Shame, as his usual composure and control would help Spurs in the conditions.

The display itself was a blow-up pig that was flown above the stage at Waters' gig in Belgium, 18/07/2013. It featured a Star of David emblazoned on its side, as well as other imagery including a man with a gun to another man’s head (not, as some outlets reported, a Hitler salute).

With the obvious link between the Jewish faith and pigs, and Waters' past history of boycotts against Israel, it has ignited anger in sections of the Jewish community.

Not only nine matches unbeaten, the USA have notched up nine straight wins. This streak stretches back to June 2nd, when they beat Germany 4-3 in a friendly.

They’ve also beaten Jamaica, Panama and Honduras in World Cup 2014 qualifying, Belize, Cuba and Costa Rica in the Gold Cup and Guatemala in a friendly.

Granted, they aren’t exactly the biggest teams, but it’s a great statement of intent for the USMNT and their rapidly growing footballing presence.

It took Eddie Johnson just 14 seconds after coming on as a substitute to score with his first touch of the ball. He rose far above the Salvador defence and tucked away a powerful header.

An obvious choice for man of the match. The veteran got a goal and three assists in ninety minutes.
