Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Frank Worthington won the
match in the forty-fourth minute with a classically constructed goal.
Kevin Keegan flicked on a Ray Clemence goalkick and Worthington brought it
under control and then rifled it into the net all in one sweet movement.
Colin Todd and Dave Watson were outstanding in a fine all-round team
display, with Keegan, Channon and Worthington pulling the Bulgarian
defence inside out with their pace and clever inter-changing of passes and
positions.
