Match Report
by Norman Giller |
England produced a world-class
performance using the sweeper system that Bobby Robson had virtually
ignored throughout his reign as England manager. The player he chose for
the sweeping job was Derby central defender Mark Wright, who was recalled
for his first international since England's defeat by Holland in the
European Championships. This was the match in which Paul Gascoigne came of
age as an international player. He strode around the centre stage as if he
owned it, and some of his forward surges and his passes were exceptional
in their quality and execution. One twisting turn on the ball when he
foxed two Dutch defenders in the second half was out of the Johan Cruyff
school of skill. England were always that little bit sharper and hungrier
for the ball, and David Platt proved himself made for the World Cup stage
when he came on as substitute for injured skipper Bryan Robson.
There was a dramatic climax when Stuart Pearce drove a late free kick from
out on the right wide of the Dutch defensive wall and straight into the
net past diving goalkeeper Hans van Breukelen. Celebration of a winning
goal was cut short when the referee made it clear that he had awarded an
indirect free kick. The ball could only have missed the fingers of van
Breukelen by inches. England came that close to what would have been a
richly deserved win.
