	  England outclassed a Greek team 
	  that had no answer to the pace and skill of an England attack in which 
	  Darren Anderton - 
	  always highly regarded by Terry Venables - was particularly impressive 
	  with his work out on the right wing which brought the bonus of his first 
	  international goal.  Paul Gascoigne was back to his cheeky best, and 
	  his fellow Geordie Peter Beardsley scored his first goal since his recall 
	  to the international stage. Platt played a captain's role and was rewarded 
	  for his effort with two goals, while Alan Shearer added to the Geordie 
	  victory parade by taking one of the four excellent chances that came his 
	  way. |
