  Kevin Keegan 
	  headed two goals from well-directed free-kicks only to see the Danes 
	  allowed to pull level with two goals inside five minutes against a less 
	  than disciplined England defence. Bob Latchford directed a header against 
	  a post and Keegan also hit the woodwork as both teams played all-out 
	  attacking football in what coach Don Howe later described as 'the most 
	  exciting international match I've ever seen.' England regained the lead 
	  through a disputed goal by Bob Latchford after the break and Phil Neal 
	  made it 4-2 before the Danes forced a third goal in the dying moments of a 
	  pulsating European championship qualifying match.
