THE EDAM BUSTERS!

Watkins shows Dutch who big cheeses are

- JEREMY CROSS

WOULD you Edam and Eve it?

Gareth Southgate has led England to the final frontier, following a dramatic demolition of the Dutch in Dortmund.

A first showpiece game on foreign soil in Three Lions history.

A final showdown with Spain in Berlin and the chance to finally become kings of Europe.

An opportunity to win only the second major trophy ever, after the glorious World Cup triumph of 1966.

Forget Holland, because Southgate and his England stars are the big cheeses now.

Remember when England thumped Holland 4-1 at Euro 96?

That is still remembered as one of the great performances but this was even better. On a seismic night of huge pressure, when all the flak of the last few weeks was put to bed once and for all.
