Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Paul Gascoigne took hold of this game
by the scruff of the neck and showed what an exciting prospect he was
after the Czechs had startled England by taking an early lead.
Gazza laid
on two goals for Steve Bull, another for Stuart Pearce and then in the
final moments added a fourth goal himself with a thumping left foot shot
into the roof of the net. Bobby Robson knew that he had a shining diamond
of a player in Gazza, but a diamond with a flaw. He said of his fellow
Geordie, 'The lad is a brilliant footballer but as daft as a brush.'
Gazza
was to give many examples to support the description.
