Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Graham Taylor made Gary Lineker
captain for his first match as England manager, and it was the new skipper
who scored the match-winning goal in the last minute of the first-half.
David Platt had a shot beaten out, Paul Gascoigne played the ball back in
and Lineker swooped to put the finishing touch from six yards. Taylor, who
had never played football at the highest level, stuck with a Robson-look
selection for his opening matches, bringing in only Arsenal right-back Lee
Dixon for the second of his twenty-two caps.
