Match Report
by Norman Giller |
|
Jack Charlton's 25-1 outsiders took a
shock sixth minute lead through Ray Houghton and then defied all attempts
by England to save this opening game in the European championship finals.
England put too much responsibility on the shoulders of Gary Lineker, who
took a buffeting as he missed a hat-trick of chances before goalkeeper
Paddy Bonner produced a miracle save to stop him snatching a late
equaliser. It was a tactical triumph for Jack Charlton, who employed Ray
Houghton and Tony Galvin as nuisance-makers in midfield, crowding out
England's engine room so that it was unable to function properly. It was
not pretty, but it was effective. 'You have to have the ball to be able to
play with it,' Charlton explained. 'We decided not to let England have it.
Simple as that.'
