  The Russians rushed into a third 
	  minute lead and compounded England's misery by handing them their third 
	  successive victory in the European championship tournament.  A Tony 
	  Adams goal pulled England level in the fifteenth minute, but the Russians 
	  regained the lead thirteen minutes later and wrapped up the game with a 
	  third goal thirteen minutes from the final whistle. Gary Lineker's
