Everybody remembers Paul Gascoigne’s incredible goal that sealed the victory for England that day against their neighbours.

An unreal moment of trickery, pace, and power to give the Three Lions a 2-0 lead summed up Gazza’s ability on the football pitch, and he has been widely regarded as one of the most gifted footballers England has ever had.

He retired from playing in 2004 after spells in the lower leagues, and had a shot at management in 2005 with Kettering Town, although lasted just 39 days at the helm.

Gazza’s personal life has been subject to much media interest in recent years, and he has written three autobiographies which highlights his various addictions.
