Friday Flashback: Marco van Basten’s volley in the Euro 1988 final between the Soviet Union and the Netherlands at the Olympiastadion in Munich.
The Netherlands won the match 2-0 (MvB’s goal came after Ruud Gullit’s in the first half) and it was the first and only time the Dutch have been crowned champions of Europe.
Sometimes I wish football was just all volleys all the time.
Lovely lil’ victory for football to keep our heroes’ spirits high as they steamroll through their preseason cash grab tour.
