Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Peter Withe, making
his debut in the centre of the shot-shy England attack, came within inches of
ending the goal famine in the last minute against Brazil when his header hit
the inside of a post before being cleared. An equaliser would have been an
injustice to a Brazilian team that played with a lot of their traditional
flair, particularly in the twelfth minute when Zico
outsmarted two England
defenders before powering a shot past Ray Clemence. Alvin Martin had a tough
baptism in the middle of the defence against Reinaldo, but could be pleased
with his display in a heartening England performance that earned an ovation
from the Wembley crowd despite another defeat.
