The year was 1988 and the likes of Argentina and Brazil were on Australian shores competing in the Bicentennial Gold Cup.

Saudi Arabia were the fourth nation vying for the trophy - and the Socceroos stunned the world after beating Argentina 4-1 at the Sydney Football Stadium.

Skipper Charlie Yankos finished with a brace to his name on that famous night - and his scorching free kick from 40 yards remains one of the best goals ever by an Australian footballer.
