On this edition of Throwback Thursday, we remember the brilliance of Holland’s Dennis Bergkamp and his last minute goal to send a sublimely talented Argentina squad out of the 1998 World Cup. In this timeless strike, the Arsenal legend took down a 60 yard pass, cuts the ball through Roberto Ayala’s  legs, and dispatches his right foot shot into the back of the net, all in one fluid moment of flawless execution. The Netherlands eventually lost out to Brazil in the semis, but the perfection of technique in this game-winner, makes it one of the most memorable in recent World Cup history.
