Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Gary Lineker
scored the first of his international goals and Trevor Steven got
his name on the England scoresheet for the first time against a Republic
of Ireland team that battled every inch of the way. Their reward for all
their industry came in the closing stages when Liam Brady became the first
player to score against England in nearly nine hours following an error by
goalkeeperGary Bailey in his debut match. Chris Waddle and Peter
Davenport were also introduced to international football for the first
time. This was England's fifth successive victory at Wembley and at
long last the press were off Bobby Robson's back.
