Netherlands v Germany

Gary Lineker presents as the Netherlands and Germany, two of European football's powerhouses, lock horns in a crucial Group B encounter. Plus highlights from Portugal v Denmark.

Gary Lineker presents live action as two of European football's powerhouses lock horns in a crucial Group B encounter. Neighbouring nations the Netherlands and Germany have met on 39 different occasions throughout the years, producing several unforgettable moments. West Germany overcame the Dutch 2-1 in the 1974 World Cup final to win on home soil, with Paul Breitner and Gurd Muller both scoring in a fine comeback win. The Netherlands had their revenge with a comeback win of their own in the 1988 European Championship semi-finals, while Frank Rijkaard and Rudi Voller were both sent off in an infamous last 16 clash at the 1990 World Cup. Dutch legend Clarence Seedorf will cast his eye over affairs this time around.

There are also highlights of Portugal's match with Denmark, two nations who also met in qualifying for Euro 2012. Both countries recorded home victories, but it was Denmark who ultimately won the group to qualify automatically. Portugal had to overcome Bosnia in the play-offs to secure their place at the finals.
