substitute notes: |
Dennis Tueart is the sixtieth player to become an England substitute,
25 years after the first.
Kevin Beattie is the youngest starter to
be replaced by a substitute, so far. He is 67 days younger than Wilf
McGuinness was when he was replaced in May 1959.
Manchester City FC
have now provided six substitutes, equal with Tottenham Hotspur FC.
but still one behind Leeds United AFC. |

Match Report
by Norman Giller |
|
England had to be content
with a sixth minute winning goal from a Kevin Keegan header in this
European championship return match. A bumpy pitch led to many of the
England passes missing their target in a scrappy match during which
goalkeeper Ray Clemence was hardly tested. Kevin Beattie, winning his
second cap, limped off with a groin injury just before half-time and
Dennis Tueart came on as a seventy-third minute substitute for Dave
Thomas. It was the first match played at the new Tsirion Stadium in
Limassol, and while the stands were impressive the pitch needed a lot of
ground work! 'Probably the worst pitch any England team has had to play
on,' was the terse comment from Don Revie.
