Without Keegan,
Wilkins, Brooking, Coppell and Trevor Francis, a new-look England attack took
a long time to get into its stride in this opening qualifying match for the
1982 World Cup finals. A Terry McDermott goal in the thirty-fifth minute
calmed jangling nerves, and England finally won comfortably with three goals
in the last thirty-three minutes through Tony Woodcock, a McDermott penalty
and a beautiful creation by Paul Mariner, who skillfully deceived three
defenders before firing the ball majestically into the net with his left foot.
Bryan Robson was a powerhouse in midfield and Eric Gates and Graham Rix made
satisfactory debuts.
