Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Peter Reid
and Kerry Dixon were sent on for their first caps as substitutes as
England tired in the high altitude. Luis Flores had given Mexico the lead
with a shot that went in off the post, and then England celebrated what
they were convinced was an equaliser from Viv Anderson. But the referee
awarded the Mexicans a free-kick after their goalkeeper had collapsed
dramatically after Anderson's header had powered into the net. It was the
first time since 1959 that an England team had lost three successive
matches and the criticism of Bobby Robson reached a new crescendo.
