Match Report
by Norman Giller |
|
England came
back from the dead to clinch a place in the World Cup finals with this
nervously constructed victory over Hungary. The door to the finals in
Spain was re-opened by group favourites Rumania making a mess of their
final qualifying match, and England needed only a point against Hungary to
book their tickets. Paul Mariner scored the vital match-winning goal in
the sixteenth minute, scrambling the ball into the net after a mishit shot
by Trevor Brooking had confused the Hungarian defenders. Hungary were
already assured of their place in the finals, and were content to
concentrate on defence and they looked in danger of conceding a second
goal only in the final moments when Tony Morley, making his debut as a
substitute, had his shot well saved by goalkeeper Meszaros. Rumours
of the death of English football were greatly exaggerated.
