Match Report
by Norman Giller |
England outclassed a Greek team
that had no answer to the pace and skill of an England attack in which
Darren Anderton -
always highly regarded by Terry Venables - was particularly impressive
with his work out on the right wing which brought the bonus of his first
international goal. Paul Gascoigne was back to his cheeky best, and
his fellow Geordie Peter Beardsley scored his first goal since his recall
to the international stage. Platt played a captain's role and was rewarded
for his effort with two goals, while Alan Shearer added to the Geordie
victory parade by taking one of the four excellent chances that came his
way.
