Terry Venables, who has died aged 80, was a gifted, charismatic, influential coach who achieved much success, notably with Barcelona, and was popular with players and fans alike.
Nevertheless, in Australia and England he will always be remembered for what he nearly achieved.
In 1994 he picked up an England team that had failed to qualify for the World Cup finals and took them to the semi-final of the home-hosted European Championships, playing some glorious football, only to lose on penalties.
