Dennis Bergkamp featured in the weekend's 2-2 draw between Holland and Brazil - and is claiming one of the goals. Late in the first half, Dennis struck one of those sweet curling far-post half-volleys from 25 yards, which may or may not have been on target - but Roberto Carlos kindly stuck out a leg, and diverted it into the net. DB was substituted in the second half - replaced by one Ruud van Nistelrooy. Wonder if that might be prophetic?

But Marc Overmars didn't feature in the game - and it could be the start of a rift with national boss Frank Rijkaard. 'I'm an Overmars fan,' said Rijkaard, 'but I don't want players who don't show enough willpower for their country, yet, when they turn out for their clubs, they give it all.'

Overmars reportedly retorted: 'I now know I won't even be considered until next spring when Holland have just three warm-up games before the finals. I really regret that and I find it astonishing.'
