Match Report
by Norman Giller |
|
The Germans
made the mistake of not getting themselves properly acclimatised, and they
were run to the edge of exhaustion in the second-half as England stepped
up the pace. Kerry Dixon had an exceptional first full game in an England
shirt, scoring twice in the second-half after laying on the first goal for
Bryan Robson in the first-half. Four minutes before half-time Peter
Shilton played a vital part in an outstanding team display when he saved a
Brehme penalty. The Germans arrived in Mexico only two days before the
match, and their players were huffing and puffing in less than an hour of
running around in the rarified air.
