Match Report
by Norman Giller |
|
There was a tame start to England's
1990 World Cup campaign when they were held to a goalless draw by a
Swedish side that came with the main objective of not getting beaten.
England's forwards were all out of touch in front of goal, and even a
barnstorming display by skipper Bryan Robson failed to give them the key
to victory. Goalkeeper Peter Shilton was unemployed for long periods, but
proved an unbeatable barrier when the Swedes suddenly stepped up the pace
in the second-half and threatened to dismantle the previously sound
England defence. The clamour for Bobby Robson to be sacked was given new
impetus. 'In the name of God go!' pleaded one headline, lifting the famous
historical quote from Oliver Cromwell.
