Clean Sheets	4 - David Seaman 2 - Nigel Martyn
Penalties Missed	2 - Richard Wright Although Malta's David Carabott hit the post, it rebounded in off Wright, giving the debutant an unfortunate own goal. Carabott then took a second penalty with just two minutes remaining. Wright saved with his feet.

  

After the excessive fashion statements of the mid-nineties, the England goalkeeper's kit finally settled down to a fairly plain yellow jersey, with navy-blue shorts and socks. The wearing of it was still the main preserve of David Seaman, with Kevin Keegan agreeing with the judgement of his two permanent predecessors (Venables and Hoddle) in naming him first choice, with Leeds United's Nigel Martyn stepping in when the Arsenal goalkeeper was injured. The signed shirt in the photos above was worn by David Seaman in the European Championship play-off second leg, against Scotland, where, despite defeat, England qualified for Euro 2000. It appears here by kind permission of the Neville Evans National Football Shirt Collection (curator Simon Shakeshaft).
