Match Report
by Norman Giller |
A
sixty-fifth
minute penalty by Nottingham Forest winger John Robertson won this match
for Scotland as England continued their miserable form in front of goal.
England argued that they should have had a penalty at the opposite end
when substitute Trevor Francis was pulled down by Willie Miller, but the
French referee waved play on. England's goal famine was now becoming a
national joke, and manager Ron Greenwood was being held up to ridicule. A
true gentleman of the game, Greenwood found it all extremely distasteful
but retained his dignity and refused to get involved in slanging matches
with the tabloid reporters taking pot shots at him.
