Talking about THAT night. For the England fans among you, here's a Wednesday afternoon treat.

Tonight's semi-final between England and Netherlands will be the first meeting in a Euros or World Cup since England's 4-1 win in the group stage of Euro 96.

So we've decided to re-run the entire match as a stream for you to watch at the top of this page, from 14:00 BST today.

Maybe a later lunch break today to follow along?

Watch the highlights below...

Nightmare, it was actually my 21st birthday so I am guessing I had a better night. Craig

• This is the fourth meeting between England and the Netherlands at a major tournament; the Oranje won 3-1 at Euro 1988 (thanks to a Marco van Basten hat-trick), followed by a goalless draw at the 1990 World Cup, and a 4-1 win for England at Euro 96.
• England have won just one of their last nine meetings with Netherlands in all competitions (D4 L4), winning a friendly match 1-0 in Amsterdam in March 2018.
• Of all nations England have faced 20+ times in their history, only against Brazil (15%) do they have a lower win rate than they do against Netherlands (27% - W6 D9 L7).

Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 Live

I thought Ezri Konsa was excellent. We've had a brilliant show of centre-back play from two centre-halves in Marc Guehi and Konsa, who are relatively new into this scene and they have been a major plus point of this tournament in a position that probably everyone looked as being options that were not too great.

It's shown that it is a very strong position now and Guehi did enough in those early games and he played well enough under a lot of pressure because the team was under a lot of pressure in the first couple of matches with how things were going and how we're playing.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him back in this evening.

Matt Upson agrees with Izzy Christiansen about Marc Guehi replacing Ezri Konsa in the starting line-up...

Izzy Christiansen
Former England midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live

I thought it was quite difficult to actually figure out what England’s formation actually was [against Switzerland]. I'm meant to be an expert.

In our 5 Live build-up, we spoke a lot about a back three, but actually, it looked more like a back four, but Kieran Trippier, who we all know is one of Gareth Southgate's most-trusted players, was playing a really high full-back role.

I do think it will be the same formation. I think we won't see any changes apart from Marc Guehi maybe coming back in because of how brilliant he was through the start of the tournament and the group stages.

It will be a difficult decision for him to make. I'm big on rhythm and I actually would say that I would play [Ezri] Konsa based on rhythm and the feeling of playing in that last game against Switzerland, but I think Guehi will come in and that will be the only change.

I'd love to see Luke Shaw out there, but I think the impact he can have off the bench is like an insurance policy for Gareth Southgate.

If Gareth Southgate does lead the Three Lions past the Netherlands tonight then his side will become the first to reach the final of a major tournament outside of England.

Former England players Matt Upson and Izzy Christiansen, on BBC Radio 5 Live earlier, assessed the choices facing Southgate before tonight's Euro 2024 semi-final in Dortmund...

England's Euro 2022 winner Alessia Russo was speaking before the Lionesses own Euro 2025 qualifier on Friday against Republic of Ireland.

"We're backing them [England men] all the way, just like they would have done with us. We'll be watching and cheering them on.

"They are all experienced players and know what it takes to win, the standards.

"For us in the Euros our bond as a team made us greater on the pitch.

"I know they're doing everything they can to win the tournament. It was the biggest highlight of my career."

If last night was a good one for Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal, could tonight match it for England and Gareth Southgate?

Well the Lionesses' Euro 2022 winner Alessia Russo certainly hopes so...

That is an amazing image of a then young Barcelona forward Lionel Messi with baby Lamine Yamal in his arms.

It turns out that, fast forward 17 years, both would go on to enjoy a pretty decent night.

While 16-year-old Yamal was coming of age with a strike like this to down France in the Euro 2024 semi-finals...

...a now 37-year-old Messi was scoring in a 2-0 win for Argentina over Canada to lead his country to the Copa America final.

In 2007, a young Lionel Messi posed for photos with a baby in the dressing room of the Camp Nou in Barcelona for a charity calendar photoshoot.

Messi, who was 20, was already making a name for himself and would go on the become arguably the greatest of all time.

But little did the photographer know that the baby would also make waves in international football less than 17 years later.

Messi was bathing Lamine Yamal - the 16-year-old who is taking the European Championships by storm.

His goal against France in the semi-final on Tuesday is one that will be talked about for decades.

At 16 years and 362 days, the strike also made him the youngest man to score in the tournament's history.

The long-forgotten photo of Messi and Yamal resurfaced after Yamal’s father posted it on Instagram last week with the text: “The beginning of two legends.”

Read the full story here.

Right, the day started with reaction to Spain's win in Tuesday night's first semi-final.

There was a worry at full-time for Spain striker Alvaro Morata following their victory over France in Munich.

Among the full-time celebrations, a photographer seemed to lose his footing and crash into Morata, leading to him gingerly moving off the field at full-time.

BBC Radio 5 Live

Nicky Campbell's 5 Live Phone-in has moved on from the football now, but what a lively debate it was.

We will feature some of the best comments from fans throughout the morning as we nudge closer to kick-off.

Anyone getting excited yet? Thumbs up for yes, down for no...

BBC Radio 5 Live

England fan John told Nicky Campbell's 5 Live Phone-in that he backs Gareth Southgate:

"The amount of disregard directed towards Southgate is bad. From the outset, he’s had a very good idea of the football he wants to play. We can all say with reasonable accuracy the style Spain will play in the final. I think Gareth is keeping his cards close and fair play to him.

"We have some of the best players in the world and come the day a lot of people will have their words rammed down their throats.

"Southgate has restored the confidence, pride and dignity back into the England job.

"I think it would be silly to dismiss the Dutch, we have a game on. Make no error we are going to have to play to win.

"Play a little more to our strengths. The Dutch are a bit more physical than we are. They are beatable and I think we can beat them. I feel the same about Spain as well. A bit of steel, a bit of focus and I have confidence we are going to get to the final. If crunch comes to push we can beat Spain as well."

England

England captain Harry Kane believes he has improved and become sharper throughout Euro 2024 and has questioned the criticism he has faced throughout the tournament over his fitness

"Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion, I know everyone wants me to score three goals a game and I want to score three goals a game, but it's not always the case," said Kane in Tuesday's news conference.

"Maybe sometimes when I don't score I think the fitness one is an easy one just to throw in - 'Why? Is there a reason? Is it his fitness? Is it not?'.

"But like I said before the tournament, I felt like I had a good preparation going into it, I'm getting better and sharper as the games go along.

"We have a semi-final ahead of us and of course I'd love nothing more than to score a couple of goals and get through to the final."

BBC Radio 5 Live

Netherlands fan Patrick, who now lives in Manchester, told Nicky Campbell's 5 Live Phone-in that he expected an "equal game" in tonight's semi-final against England:

"We may as well not play, apparently England have already won! It's going to be an equal game. Courage will be rewarded. The Dutch are more adventurous, but it will be close.

"I think the Dutch have a real patience that prior teams didn’t have. This team has a survival attitude which I haven’t seen in the past, which will take us through to the final."

It has just occurred to us that the locals in Dortmund who have tickets to tonight's semi-final between England and the Netherlands might be somewhat conflicted.

Do Borussia Dortmund fans cheer for national rivals Holland or England and their captain Harry Kane - the leading striker of 'Der Klassiker' rivals Bayern Munich?

BBC Radio 5 Live

Michelle from Middlesbrough told Nicky Campbell's 5 Live phone-in that she went to the last two England games and gave her prediction for tonight's semi-final against the Netherlands:

"We’ve got to be positive. My prediction is 2-1 to England. It's not been easy watching, has it?

"I've just myself got back from Germany. I went to the last two games. Even though the group stages it wasn’t pretty. It seems to be getting better, but I think, at this stage, do we care?

"Yes, it would be great to play well and win, but the most important thing is the result and how we do that."
