Match Report
by Norman Giller |
England
needed a goal avalanche to breath life into their hopes of qualifying for
the 1978 World Cup finals, but they were too anxious and continually
snatched at the chances they created. A thirtieth minute goal by Paul
Mariner and an injury-time goal by Ray Kennedy lifted England to their
first victory in seven matches but it was too little too late.
Debutant Trevor Whymark was sent on as substitute for Terry McDermott in a
bid to increase the pressure on the Luxembourg defence, but they were too
tense and wasted at least six clear-cut opportunities. 'Anxiety got the
better of us,' was the summing up of a disappointed Ron Greenwood.
