Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Argentina equalised with a
last-minute penalty by Mario Kempes after the Argentinean referee adjudged
that Kempes had been fouled by skipper Emlyn Hughes. There were moments in
the second-half when the game threatened to get out of control as
England's players started to get drawn into personal feuds in retaliation
against a spate of reckless tackles. England were flattered by a 2-0 lead
following goals by Mike Channon and Frank Worthington either side of the
interval. Hughes, who had got involved in a skirmish with the
Argentineans as they came off at half-time, blocked the ball in the
fifty-eighth minute. It ran into the path of Kempes who fired an
unstoppable shot into the net to give a glimpse of the goal-scoring
ability that would power Argentina to the World Cup in 1978. Alec Lindsay
made a sound debut as full back partner to his Liverpool team-mate Hughes.
