	  England needed a clear two-goal 
	  victory over Spain to qualify for the third and fourth play-off. Spain 
	  packed the midfield and made it difficult for a much-changed England team 
	  to get any rhythm. Trevor Brooking gave England the lead in the nineteenth 
	  minute when he steered the ball over the line from a Ray Wilkins header 
	  following a free-kick for one of several fouls on dangerman Kevin Keegan. 
	  Ray Clemence conceded a disputed penalty early in the second-half from 
	  which Cardeñosa scored an equaliser. Six minutes later Spain were awarded 
	  a second penalty after a foul by Dave Watson. Dani beat Clemence but was 
	  ordered to retake the spot-kick, and this time the Liverpool goalkeeper 
	  made a dramatic save. England lifted their game and had the satisfaction 
	  of snatching a deserved victory when the industrious Tony Woodcock steered 
	  the ball home after a thumping shot from Terry McDermott had been pushed 
	  out. England went out of the tournament with their heads held high, but 
	  disgraced by a minority of moronic supporters. |
