Match Report

|
Goalkeeper Pat Jennings celebrated
his world record 113th cap with sensational saves that prevented Glenn
Hoddle, Kerry Dixon andGary Lineker from scoring for England. The point
from the goalless game clinched a place in the World Cup finals for
Northern Ireland as runners-up in the group to England, who would go to
Mexico as the only undefeated European team in the qualifying matches.
England argued that they should have had a penalty when defender Alan
McDonald handled during a goalmouth scramble, but the referee awarded a
corner-kick. Pat Jennings got a standing ovation as he came off at the
final whistle, and decided to postpone his retirement so that he could
finish his career in the World Cup finals.
