Match Report
by Norman Giller |
England spurted into the
lead with a third minute goal from Denis Tueart, but finished with chants
of 'Rubbish' ringing in their ears after they had made a hash of a World
Cup match in which they needed a resounding win against unrated opponents.
The Finns played above themselves, and equalised early in the second-half
before Joe Royle headed a fifty-second minute winner from Mike Channon's
centre. Those close to the England camp knew that all was not well between
Don Revie and a faction of Football Association officials, who quietly
questioned his methods of management and his commercial interests.
