Round of 16[edit]

Italy vs Norway[edit]

Christian Vieri scored his fifth goal of the finals and the only one of the game in the 18th minute with exquisite precision, bursting on to Luigi Di Biagio's pass 40 yards from goal. Norway had their moments but failed to finish as Gianluca Pagliuca made some brilliant saves.[1]

Netherlands vs FR Yugoslavia[edit]

Just three minutes after Slobodan Komljenović scored the equalizer, Predrag Mijatović missed a penalty kick as, after deciding not to hit it to the sides due to Edwin van der Sar's reach,[2] the ball hit the crossbar, prompting him to describe it as the worst moment in his career.[3] Edgar Davids scored the winning goal for the Netherlands in overtime; Davids, suffering a cramp, had asked to be substituted moments before but Guus Hiddink asked him to stay in the field.[4] An apparent scuffle between Van der Sar and Winston Bogarde in the celebration was explained by Van der Sar as an instinctive overreaction from being unintentionally choked by Pierre van Hooijdonk.[5]

Argentina vs England[edit]

See also: Argentina–England football rivalry

Argentina decided to use their change kit, feeling that it had granted them luck in the 1986 World Cup quarter-final between the two sides.[7] All four goals were scored in the first half, making it the first match in the tournament with as many goals scored before half-time.[8] With the score tied at 2–2, David Beckham retaliated after being fouled by Diego Simeone and was sent off. Beckham's teammate Michael Owen subsequently described Beckham's act as "childish and unnecessary", although Owen also said that the burnings of effigies of Beckham were undeserved.[9] In the subsequent penalty shoot-out, Argentina went first. David Seaman saved Argentina's second penalty from Hernán Crespo to give England the advantage, but that was immediately cancelled when Carlos Roa saved from Paul Ince. The tie ended with another Roa save, from David Batty. Batty said it was the first penalty he had ever taken.[10] England had also exited on penalties in the recent UEFA Euro 1996.
