  • Assist: Gary Stevens. "Waddle opened the scoring at Hampden with a flying header after 20 minutes following a careful build-up of passes by Pearce, Cottee, Stevens and Steven before Stevens accepted his old Everton colleague's return pass and centred." Chris Waddle6th of 6 goals. Header from 6 yards., 20' 19:41
  • Assist: Gary Stevens. "...10 minutes from the end...which was partly the result of McPherson's inability to deal properly with a long, high ball from Stevens on the right. The ball bounced off Bull's back and the speed of his reaction as he turned and shot past Leighton left the centre-back looking bemused." Steve Bull1st of 4 goals. Right-footed from 14 yards., 81' 80:09
