Match Report
by Norman Giller |
David Platt maintained the goal
scoring form that had been one of the few bonuses for Graham Taylor as
England produced a fighting performance against a vastly improved
Norwegian team. Paul Gascoigne stood out on his return to the
international stage, and it was his flair and imagination that brought the
smile back to the face of English football. A major worry for Taylor was
the shot-shy performance from Ian Wright, who was struggling to produce
his club form at England level. Tony Adams brought stability to the
England defence that was dented only by a surprise long-range shot that
earned Norway a flattering draw in this World Cup qualifier.
