Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Just before
the kick-off England heard the news that Denmark had beaten Greece 2-0 to
clinch the place in the European championship finals, so it was something
of an anti-climax as they went into action against Luxembourg. Skipper
Bryan Robson refused to allow chins to drop, and he was the main motivator
as England cruised to a comfortable victory. Robson scored two of the
goals, with Bobby Robson's former Ipswich faithfuls Terry Butcher and Paul
Mariner netting a goal each. Manchester United right-back Mick Duxbury
made his debut in an England defence that was rarely troubled by the
shot-shy Luxembourg forwards.
