Portugal
opened with style and grace, and England were often stretched close to
breaking point. But this Terry Venables team had character, and they
withstood an early avalanche without conceding a goal and started to hit
back with thrusting football of their own. Steve Stone, this time starting
the game, was again outstanding and gave England the lead with a
magnificent shot from twenty yards moments before half-time. Portugal
equalized early in a splendid second-half, with both teams producing
football of the highest quality. England almost snatched victory when
substitute Gareth Southgate marked his debut by heading against the
crossbar. 'We got a taste of what Euro 96 is going to be like,' said Terry
Venables. 'I can't wait.'
