It was a goal that combined the calculation of a scientist with the grace of a ballerina.
15 years on and that two-touch work of genius by Arsenal's Dennis Bergkamp against Newcastle United still inspires awe. It was voted the best goal Arsenal have scored in the Premier League era by their fans, and justifiably so.
But the Dutchman's flick, swivel and finish at St James' Park was also a goal of immense significance, a milestone moment in a season that would end with Arsenal claiming a league and FA Cup Double.
It also summed up the hard-to-find genius of a striker who played 423 times and scored 120 times during 11 largely successful years at Highbury.
