Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Gary Lineker's flicked header from a
Chris Waddle right wing cross went in off a post to give England the lead
after twenty-three minutes in this Rous Cup match. The Colombians were
forced to abandon their dour defensive tactics, and the orange-haired
Carlos Valderrama started to treat the crowd to his bag of tricks.
Escobar equalised for Colombia in the sixty-sixth minute with a header
that went into the net off the underside of the bar following a
corner-kick, but it was not enough to stop England skipper Bryan Robson
collecting the Rous Cup. The crowd were entertained by the antics of
goalkeeper Higuita, who played as a sweeper and often came out of the
penalty area to play
the ball with his feet. It was just a warm-up for his most eccentric trick
that would be saved for his next visit to the Wembley ground that the
Colombians described as The Cathedral of football.
