Ron Greenwood, appointed first of
all in a caretaker capacity, called up seven of the players who had helped
Liverpool win the European Cup. His first England selection included
veteran Ian Callaghan, who was winning his first cap since the third match
of the 1966 World Cup finals eleven years and forty-nine days earlier. But
Greenwood's hopes for an instant team rapport were not realised, and
England struggled to contain a lively Swiss team. Only a succession of
fine saves by goalkeeper Ray Clemence prevented England from going down to
an embarrassing defeat.
