At long last the wait is almost over as Brazil and Croatia prepare to kick off the 20th edition of the World Cup finals.
And with less than 24 hours to go, it's an excuse to squeeze some World Cup nostalgia.
Tonight we did just that with And Gazza Misses The Final co-writer Scott Murray who recently did a minute-by-minute of iconic World Cup matches with his colleague Rob Smyth.

The 1986 World Cup match between Argentina and England was another one that could be viewed in a different light. Although Diego Maradona is painted as a villain for his Hand of God goal, Murray believes England's Terry Fenwick should have been sent off before that.
