The Three Lions won 1-0 through a Les Ferdinand header in a performance as shocking as the Hong Kong side’s pink Reebok kit.

The match was disappointing at best, with Sky Sport calling it “an embarrassing 90 minutes for England’s best against a team made up of mostly has beens and never will bes”, and while that is best forgotten, what happened after lives on in infamy.

Given free rein to celebrate Paul Gascoigne’s birthday a day early and placed under the watchful eye of notorious boozer Bryan Robson, several of the squad headed to Causeway Bay and the China Jump for a night out where the term “Dentist’s Chair” become forever synonymous with ripped shirts and wild-eyed debauchery, as the players piled into the chair to have spirits tipped down their throats.

Pictures of the dishevelled stars soon got out and they were front page news back home – The Sun’s “Disgracefool” headline captured the furore.

So 22 years on to the day, what became of those involved?
