Match Report
by Mike Payne |
Continuing
their build up for the World Cup, England took on a
very good Yugoslavia side at Wembley and produced another encouraging win.
Once again, though, they owed an
enormous amount to their skipper Bryan
Robson. The Manchester United star
already held the record for the fastest goal scored in a World Cup finals
match and, here, after only 38 seconds, he netted another quick one in
near-record time.
As often happens Gary Lineker was foued in
England's first attack. Chris Waddle took the free-kick and ball cleared
the static defence for Robson to head powerfully past the stunned Ivković
in the Yugoslav goal. The visitors had been caught cold and not since
Jackie Milburn's 45-second goal for Newcastle against Manchester City in
the 1955 FA Cup Final had Wembley seen such an explosive start.
Manager Bobby Robson had brought
several fringe players in to give them some experience and also the chance
for them to make an impact. They were soon learning a great deal about
football at this level as the Yugoslavian side came back strongly from
their early set-back. Stojković, a very
talented player, showed all his skill and in the 18th minute it was he who
made the visitor's equalizer. After a Steve Bull shot had been blocked,
Stojković gained possession and found
Škoro. The England defenders backed
off as
Škoro ran at them and the winger
punished them by hitting a splendid shot from 22 yards which beat the
diving Peter Shilton. It was a fine goal and now it was England's turn to
be stunned.
With Michael Thomas and David Rocastle finding it
difficult to come to terms with this higher grade of football it was left
to Robson to hold the midfield together. He did so brilliantly and
certainly was an inspiration to the junior members of the side.
The
second half was fairly even, but England edged themselves back in front
again after 68 minutes. Paul Parker made another of several fine runs from
his deep position, exchanged passes with Lineker and then put over a
dangerous cross. The ball was flicked on by Bull and there was the
irrepressible Robson to drive a left-foot shot home. No wonder the skipper
received a standing ovation as he left the field after 75 minutes.
Stuart Pearce was booked as he, too, found the going difficult against
this talented side but, thanks to Robson's influence and scoring power,
England were able to hold on to their lead and record a very good result.

Match Report
by Glen Isherwood |
England
had beaten Yugoslavia at Wembley and in
Belgrade to qualify for the previous year's European Championship, and
like England they had qualified for the following year's World Cup without
defeat.
After three
goalless matches, England scored after 38 seconds. It was the quickest
international goal ever scored at Wembley. From Waddle's free-kick, Bryan
Robson's header went under the 'keeper. Robson had scored England's
fastest ever World Cup
goal
in 1982.
The visitors equalised
in the 18th minute, Haris Skoro took a pass
from Susic and beat Shilton from 25 yards. It was the first goal in
England's net in seven Wembley matches. For the second match in
succession, Beasant replaced Shilton at half-time. England restored their
lead in the 71st minute. Parker played a one-two with Lineker and crossed.
Bull back-heeled it into the path of Robson, who drove it into the corner
for his second.
Yugoslavia never played England again.

Match Report

Bryan Robson scored the fastest
England goal ever witnessed at Wembley when he headed in a Chris Waddle
free-kick after just thirty-eight seconds. It ended more than five hours'
of goalless football by England and set up what was their 100th win at
Wembley. Skoro equalised for Yugoslavia with a snap shot in a rare attack
in the seventeenth minute, and it was Robson who struck the winning goal
in the sixty-seventh minute after Paul Parker had made an enterprising
break down the right wing. Bobby Robson continued his experiments, sending
on Dave Beasant, Tony Dorigo, David Platt, Steve McMahon and Steve Hodge
as substitutes, the first time England had ever sent on five subs.
