substitute notes: |
Following Bull's substitution, England have now used thirty during the
1989-90 season, equaling the record set in the previous World Cup
season, 1985-86, and England still have the World Cup Finals
tournament to play.
Chris Waddle has now been replaced by a
substitute in a record eighteen matches.
Steve
Bull is the second substitute to score in two different matches, the
first since Tony Currie in May 1978. The fourth time the substitute's
goal has accounted for England's tally. |

Match Report
by Norman Giller |
|
England's final warm-up match
before the World Cup finals almost proved too hot for them. Steve Bull
saved them from an unnerving defeat with a headed last-minute equaliser.
Tunis had taken a shock first-half lead when Hergal accepted a miscued
pass from Paul Gascoigne and astonished everybody, particularly Peter
Shilton, with a volley from thirty-five yards. England looked lethargic
and hardly in the mood for the World Cup challenge that lay ahead of them.
'Don't read too much into it,' said Bobby Robson. 'This was just a
limbering up game. The matches that matter will be played in Italy.'
Robson knew that his England reign was nearly over. He had quietly
negotiated a contract back in club management with PSV Eindhoven. The
English press would have a new man to kick in the shape of Graham Taylor.
