Match Report

Trevor
Francis gave England their first victory over Wales in five matches when
he struck a powerful shot high into the net after Bryan Robson had pushed
a short free-kick into his path in the seventy-fourth minute. Glenn Hoddle
had looked the most inventive player on the pitch, and England lost a lot
of their poise and control when he limped off early in the second-half.
Wales were always a threat and goalkeeper Joe Corrigan rescued England
with three outstanding saves. England played a conventional defence, with
Phil Thompson and Terry Butcher proving rock-solid partners.
