Match Report

The
pulsating performance that Terry Venables had been promising came at last
against a very useful Swiss team that had qualified for the Euro 96
championships. Not panicked by going a goal down, England started to put
together the sort of passing movements that were at the foundation of the
Venables playing philosophy. He had been a master passer in his playing
career, and has always liked his teams to make the ball do the talking.
England had to overcome the handicap of losing Jamie Redknapp with an
injury after only six minutes, and substitute Steve Stone brought
tremendous enthusiasm and energy to the right wing. Stuart Pearce wiped
out the Swiss lead with a scorching shot from 30 yards. England took
complete control in the second-half and their enterprise was rewarded with
goals from Sheringham and Stone. It was being whispered, but had Venables
actually started to put together a team that could win the European
championship?
