Copa Football Netherlands kids' jersey Coupe du Monde 1994

In 1994, Dick Advocaat led the Netherlands to the World Cup for what would be the first of his three stints as the national team coach. A new and exciting team was emerging, with a thrilling attack led by Dennis Bergkamp, who had burst onto the scene at the European Championships two years earlier.

Staying true to his reputation, the striker scored 3 goals, allowing the Dutch to cautiously advance from the group stage and then eliminate the Republic of Ireland in the second round. Brazil proved to be a formidable opponent in the quarter-finals, and when Bebeto scored in the 63rd minute to give the South Americans a 2-0 lead, the tournament seemed over for the Oranje. Bergkamp scored a goal within the following 60 seconds, before Aaron Winter equalised 12 minutes later. Brazil won this memorable match thanks to a wonderful free kick from Branco.
